Anna Paquin is set to star in the miniseries, playing Nancy Montgomery, a Canadian woman living in the mid 1800s.
Over the last couple of years, Anna Paquin has taken a few small roles, but now it looks like she’s landed another lead TV gig.
It’s not just Anna Paquin who has landed a role on Alias Grace.
Anna Paquin was a well-known actress before she landed the gig on True Blood, but she spent seven seasons on the HBO drama before the show called it quits in 2014.
