Gillian Anderson to Play Miss Havisham in New Great Expectations
Gillian Anderson will star in the iconic role of Miss Havisham in a bold new adaptation of Charles Dickens’ Great Expectations. The cast of the star-studded MASTERPIECE on PBS/BBC coproduction also includes David Suchet (Poirot) and Ray Winstone (Sexy Beast).
“I can’t wait to see Gillian delicately sink her teeth into the role of the beautiful, mysterious and manipulative Miss Havisham. She’s one of the most intriguing female characters in literature,”
says MASTERPIECE executive producer Rebecca Eaton.
“Gillian’s hypnotic portrayal of Lady Dedlock in Bleak House showed that she and Dickens are a perfect match.”
