Variety has reported that Joel Kinnaman (The Suicide Squad) has joined the cast of HBO’s upcoming reboot of In Treatment.
The new series will star Uzo Aduba (Orange is the New Black) as therapist Dr. Brooke Lawrence, who “will see a diverse trio of patients in session as she wrestles with her own issues.”
Kinnaman will star as Adam, Brooke’s long-time on-again, off-again boyfriend who has resurfaced, bringing further complication to Brooke’s personal life. He stars alongside Anthony Ramos (Hamilton), Liza Colón-Zayas (Titans), John Benjamin Hickey (The Good Wife) and Quintessa Swindell (Trinkets).
Stephen Levinson, Mark Wahlberg, Hagai Levi, Jennifer Schuur, Joshua Allen and Melissa Bernstein will executive produce the reboot with Joanne Toll and Noa Tishby serving as co-executive producers.
