Per Variety, this forthcoming, seven-part reimagining of John Steinbeck’s 1952 magnum opus will “explore the multigenerational saga of the Trask family,” farmers who settle in California’s Salinas Valley in the early 20th century, “focusing new attention on its indelible antihero, Cathy Ames.”

Zoe Kazan will write the show, following in the footsteps of her grandfather, Elia Kazan, who directed the 1955 adaptation of the famed novel.

Christopher Abbott, Mike Faist and Hoon Lee also star in the drama based on John Steinbeck's literary classic.
