"The Regime" Is Kate Winslet Like You've Never Seen Her

As far as I'm concerned, there's nothing Kate Winslet can't do. Not only is she a wonderful philanthropist (she co-founded The Golden Hat Foundation in 2010, and works to change the way people on the autism spectrum are viewed), but she's also an incredible actress. She makes me cry in Titanic, makes me believe in love in The Holiday, and, of course, makes me want to have a best friend like Leonardo DiCaprio!

In her new series, The Regime, we get to see Kate Winslet like we've never seen her before: as the Chancellor of a fictional regime in Europe. This new TV show is snarky, steamy, and promises to be totally unexpected. Here's everything we know about Kate Winslet's The Regime, including the series' cast, how many episodes there will be, and when you can watch the full thing!

Max's new drama The Regime takes place within a fictional, contemporary European regime as it begins to fall apart. The limited series follows the relationships, secrets, and decisions that occur over the course of a single year. You can watch The Regime trailer here!

In addition to Kate Winslet, we'll see Matthias Schoenaerts, Guillaume Gallienne, Andrea Riseborough, Martha Plimpton, and Hugh Grant. These are some amazing names that will work very well together. I'm especially excited to see Kate Winslet and Hugh Grant work together again after Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility in 1995!

You'll recognize Hugh Grant from Love, Actually and Wonka, and you might also know Martha Plimpton from The Goonies. Andrea Riseborough has starred in titles like Oblivion and Birdman opposite Emma Stone.

What is The Regime on HBO based on?

The Regime isn't necessarily based on any existing material. But like any good TV show, it's definitely an eye-opening look at the world around us — and might just get you thinking differently about politics and governments in general.

What else can I watch Kate Winslet in?

There are more than enough Kate Winslet movies to watch before you binge the entirety of The Regime! You can stream The Holiday on Netflix (trust me, it doesn't have to be Christmastime), while Sense and Sensibility is on MGM+ and Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind is available to rent on Amazon Prime. Titanic is on Paramount+, but it's not the only movie she's done with Leonardo DiCaprio! They also co-starred in 2008's Revolutionary Road (which you can watch on Max).
