HBO has brought online the official trailer for The Time Traveler’s Wife, the six-episode drama series debuting Sunday, May 15 on HBO and available to stream on HBO Max. You can watch the trailer below, and you’ll find the full key art underneath.
An intricate and magical love story, adapted by Steven Moffat from the much-loved novel (buy at Amazon) by Audrey Niffenegger and directed by David Nutter, The Time Traveler’s Wife tells the story of Clare and Henry and a marriage with a problem… time travel.
The series stars Rose Leslie (HBO’s Game of Thrones), Theo James (Divergent), Desmin Borges (You’re the Worst), and Natasha Lopez (Runner Runner).
The HBO and Warner Bros. Television production is executive produced by writer Steven Moffat (Doctor Who, Sherlock), director David Nutter (Game of Thrones); Sue Vertue and Brian Minchin through Hartswood Films; and Joseph E. Iberti.
“This is a story of loss, but it’s not a tragedy. It’s about a time traveler, but it’s not science fiction,” said Steven Moffat, writer and executive producer.
“Despite Clare and Henry’s time-scrambled relationship, this is the tale of a grand, ordinary love – but not necessarily in that order.”
He added: “This is a dream project for me. I have always loved Audrey Niffenegger’s extraordinary, moving novel, and it has inspired me many times, so to adapt it for television is the thrill of a lifetime.
“Working with David Nutter is a joy and an honor already, and with Rose Leslie and Theo James as Clare and Henry, and Natasha Lopez and Desmin Borges as Charisse and Gomez, this is going to be the love story we need right now.”
Francesca Orsi, Executive Vice President of HBO Drama Programming, added: “Steven Moffat is the perfect writer to bring this beloved book and genre-bending story about marriage to life.
“We also couldn’t be more thrilled that David Nutter will be returning to HBO to direct all episodes of the season.”
