Sydney Sweeney and Julianne Moore sign up for new movie from Mare of Easttown creator

A stellar line-up assembled for this Apple feature.

Following on from the huge success of Mare of Easttown, for HBO, show creator Brad Ingelsby has lined up Julianne Moore and Sydney Sweeney for a feature film production. Mare of Easttown, which starred Kate Winslet and Guy Pearce, was set in Southeastern Pennsylvania and focused of the titular character as she attempted to solve a murder while also looking for a missing woman, the daughter of an old friend. It was a massive success for HBO with a second season in the works. Apple Studios have nabbed Ingelsby for his next big project. The plot for Echo Valley, as reported by Variety, goes as follows:

Julianne Moore stars as Kate Garrett, a woman reeling from a personal tragedy who spends her days boarding and training horses on the secluded and picturesque Echo Valley Farm.

Late one night, her wayward daughter Claire (Sydney Sweeney) arrives at her doorstep, frightened, trembling and covered in someone else’s blood. From that simple premise, (the film) becomes a heart-pounding thriller about just how far a mother will go to save her child.
