Actor Mary Elizabeth Winstead is set to appear opposite Ewan McGregor in the upcoming series A Gentleman in Moscow. The show is an adaptation of Amor Towles novel by the same name.

Mary will play the role of Anna Urbanova who is characterised to be glamourous, self-made actor, and successful in her career. The upcoming series will mark the third time she is collaborating with Ewan after Fargo season three and Birds of Prey (2020).

The filming for the series is currently taking place and will release on Showtime in the US and Paramount+ in other places. According to Variety report, the series logline reads, "follows Count Alexander Rostov (McGregor) who, in the aftermath of the Russian Revolution, finds that his gilded past places him on the wrong side of history. Spared immediate execution, he is banished by a Soviet tribunal to an attic room in the opulent Hotel Metropol, threatened with death if he ever sets foot outside again. As the years pass and some of the most tumultuous decades in Russian history unfold outside the hotel’s doors, Rostov’s reduced circumstances provide him entry into a much larger world of emotional discovery. As he builds a new life within the walls of the hotel, he discovers the true value of friendship, family and love."

A Gentleman in Moscow will have Ben Vanstone as writer, executive producer and show runner. It will be directed by Sam Miller.
