HBO has released the official trailer for creator Derek Cianfrance’s upcoming limited series adaptation of I Know This Much Is True, featuring Mark Ruffalo’s Dominick as he struggles to take care of his schizophrenic twin brother Thomas, who is also portrayed by Ruffalo.
Written, directed and executive produced by Derek Cianfrance, I Know This Much Is True will be a family saga that follows the parallel lives of identical twin brothers Dominick and Thomas Birdsey, both played by Golden Globe nominee Mark Ruffalo, in an epic story of betrayal, sacrifice and forgiveness set against the backdrop of 20th century America.
Lamb is the author of six bestselling novels: “I’ll Take You There,” “We Are Water,” “Wishin’ and Hopin’,” “The Hour I First Believed,” “I Know This Much Is True,” and “She’s Come Undone.”
Ruffalo will pull triple duty by executive producing and starring in the series as the aforementioned twins.
