First image of the new series of Kate Winslet and her daughter

‘Mare of Easttown’ star Kate Winslet is returning to television for a Channel 4 drama ‘I Am Ruth’ – and the first image from the project has already surfaced.

Winslet stars in the series alongside her daughter, Mia Threapleton (from her relationship with ex-husband Jim Threapleton), and the photo below gives us a first look at the two actresses playing their characters.

Winslet plays Ruth, the mother of Freya (Threapleton) who is facing a problem that, sadly, is very much on the agenda. Ruth begins to worry about her daughter as she realizes that her moods and behaviors worsen as a result of spending too much time on social media.

“I can say with my hand on my heart that I will never forget what we have learned while doing this project,Winslet said in a statement, praising creator Dominic Savage.

“The understated and natural way we’ve put together this series is the way I aspire to work all the time. Often these creative environments can be large and overwhelming, but Part of Dominic’s directing process was to keep everything to a minimum and focus on the actors and the world we’re creating alongside them, thanks to his incredible support,” he kept saying.

“It was a privilege and an inspiration to work with Dominic Savage. He is simply extraordinary.” added the actress.
