Harlow Jane (She Came to Me, High Desert) has joined the Peacock drama series The Five-Star Weekend in a series regular role. Additionally, David Denman (Peacemaker, Rebel Ridge), Josh Hamilton (Walking Dead, The Last Thing He Told Me), and Rob Huebel (Sex Lives of College Girls, Transparent) will recur.
Bekah Brunstetter (Maid, This is Us) created the project based on Elin Hilderbrand’s bestselling novel The Perfect Couple. The Five-Star Weekend centers on Hollis Shaw (Jennifer Garner), a famed food influencer known for her delicious recipes, impeccable taste, and warm demeanor, who suffers a devastating loss. Unable to move forward, the death exposes the cracks in Hollis’s picture-perfect life — her strained marriage, her complicated relationship with her daughter, and her growing pursuit of validation from her followers.
In an effort to overcome grief and find herself again, Hollis gets the idea to host a weekend away at her house on Nantucket with three friends from different stages in her life: her childhood, her 20s, 30s, and one surprise fifth star. Set against a luxurious and coastal backdrop, they will mature in ways they could never imagine as boundaries are pushed and secrets are exposed.
