Kate Winslet drops hints about a potential second season of 'Mare of Easttown', suggesting production may resume in 2027 with a strong likelihood. The HBO star, who won an Emmy Award for her portrayal of Mare Sheehan, indicated that discussions about renewing the series took place during her recent directorial debut "Goodbye June". Winslet revealed to Deadline that conversations around a potential revival occurred, and she believes they will indeed return.
The show was initially designed as a one-season show, but rumors began circulating in 2024 when HBO's head of drama, Francesca Orsi, hinted at possible discussions about the series' continuation. Orsi mentioned that the network might explore picking up Mare Sheehan years later, potentially with her character facing new challenges.
In recent news, HBO announced the renewal of another show set in Delaware County, "Task", starring Mark Ruffalo as FBI agent Tom Brandis. The possibility of both shows filming concurrently has sparked interest among fans, particularly given Ingelsby's suggestion that their worlds could intersect.

So I think it's awesome that HBO is even considering a second season of 'Mare of Easttown'. Kate Winslet is an incredible actress and her performance as Mare Sheehan was so captivating. If the show does get renewed, I'd love to see how Mare's character would evolve in new and unexpected ways. It's also cool that they're thinking about how the two shows could intersect - 'Task' seems like a great show too, with Mark Ruffalo starring as Tom Brandis. Maybe we'll see some cool crossovers between the two series! 
- Theodore Roosevelt I'm excited to hear about a potential second season of 'Mare of Easttown'! Kate Winslet dropping hints is like music to my ears 
! It's always thrilling when TV shows come back, especially if they have such amazing characters. The idea of both 'Mare of Easttown' and 'Task' filming concurrently would be fascinating... just imagine the possibilities! 
Kate Winslet sounds like she's really into it and I love how HBO is keeping the doors open for more Mare Sheehan drama. It would be amazing to see her character face new challenges in Delaware County - the intersection with "Task" could get so interesting! Mark Ruffalo's involvement is a big draw too, let's hope they can make it work. 
I think what I love most about this news is how it shows that even though some shows are designed to be one-season affairs, sometimes life has other plans and more stories to tell... 
The show was so intense and Kate Winslet's performance as Mare Sheehan was mesmerizing 
. I loved the mystery and suspense throughout the first season, it kept me on the edge of my seat 
. If they're planning to resume production in 2027, I hope they can do justice to the story again 
. I'm more of a 'let's make it happen' kinda person, though 
.
it's like the ultimate Delaware County double crossover. fingers crossed for a 2027 premiere tho
. anywaa, i heard its possiblly gettin renewed in 2027 
I hope this revival happens in 2027, that gives us a few years to process everything we learned from season one 
. Fingers crossed 2027 arrives and we get more of 'Mare of Easttown' goodness 
! Kate Winslet seems really down to pick up where she left off and I think it would be amazing if they do go for a revival. The show's creator, Brad Ingelsby, has always hinted at the possibility of exploring Mare Sheehan's character in the future and now it looks like HBO is finally taking steps towards making that happen 
.
. Fingers crossed it all comes together and we get another great season of 'Mare of Easttown'!
But at the same time, it's like they're gonna leave us hanging for another year or so 
. Can't wait to see what happens next though! 
And can we talk about Mark Ruffalo in 'Task'? 
The guy is always good at playing smart, brooding characters 
What do you guys think? Should we be stoked about a potential crossover between 'Mare of Easttown' and 'Task'? 
2027 can't come soon enough, I mean who needs a functioning life when you've got a potential sequel to binge-watch? The show was always designed as a one-season thing but it's not like HBO has ever had a problem with milking their hits dry... err i mean, making them last longer than necessary 
. Mark Ruffalo's new show 'Task' is cool and all but I'm pretty sure the only thing that's gonna be 'tasking' for us fans is waiting for both shows to premiere and trying to figure out how they'll intersect 
Kate Winslet seems super invested in bringing back Mare Sheehan and I think it's time for more of her gritty, complex storylines 
If both shows were to film concurrently, I'd love to see how their storylines might connect
