Florence Pugh Stars as Antihero Cathy Ames in 'East of Eden' Trailer
Zoe Kazan’s adaptation centers on Cathy Ames and the Trask family as Netflix teases the seven-episode drama ahead of its Oct. 1 premiere.
- On Wednesday, May 13, Netflix released the full trailer for 'East of Eden,' Zoe Kazan's seven-episode adaptation of John Steinbeck's 1952 novel, starring Florence Pugh as the formidable antiheroine Cathy Ames.
- Kazan wrote and executive produced the series, maintaining deep connection to Steinbeck's writing; her grandfather, Academy Award-winning filmmaker Elia Kazan, directed the original 1955 film adaptation.
- Christopher Abbott portrays Adam Trask, while Mike Faist plays his brother Charles. The multigenerational saga, set in California's Salinas Valley, follows the intertwined lives of the Trask and Hamilton families.
- The limited series will premiere on Netflix on October 1. The trailer emphasizes Cathy as a complex character, with Pugh reciting, "I believe there are monsters born in this world to human parents."
- Directing duties are split between Garth Davis, who helmed the first four episodes, and Laure de Clermont-Tonnerre, who directed the final three for producers Fifth Season and Anonymous Content.
