There's just no way we could possibly do it. And then there was talk, like, could there be? Especially when the show was getting such good responses... Creatively, Brad has shared some very cool ideas. We will see what happens. I also have to figure out if I can do it. Can I go through it again? It did cost me a lot emotionally to be her, and I have to figure out if I can summon it all up again and do it again."

Earlier, Kate Winslet had stated that she would love to return to her character Mare Sheehan from the show. The Reader actress had revealed to TV Line stating, "I miss her. I really do. It's the strangest thing. I feel like I'm in mourning. It was an absolutely wonderful role.

Kate Winslet said, "People have been enraptured about how sh***y we made Mare look. That was very important to us creatively. We wanted to keep it real, and we were strict about it... Find the t-shirt that has a line that hits at the hip at the widest part. Don't wear a bra, she just got up out of bed. Why would she have a bra on? Perhaps because of COVID and how much of a struggle that has been for people globally, there was something about how Mare looks that seemed to make people validated in a way. That was very, very surprising. I did not think people would be so responsive and I'm grateful in a way that we would be able to do that."
