Los Angeles, Dec 2 : Hollywood stars Cate Blanchett and Kevin Kline will be starring in a thriller series titled 'Disclaimer' from film director Alfonso CuarAn. The show is based on the novel of the same name by Renee Knight. Blanchett stars as Catherine Ravenscroft, a successful and respected television documentary journalist whose work has been built on revealing the concealed transgressions of long-respected institutions, reports variety.com. When an intriguing novel written by a widower (Kline) appears on her bedside table, she is horrified to realise she is a key character in a story that she had hoped was long buried in the past. CuarAn is writing the adaptation and will also direct and executive produce under his Esperanto Filmoj banner along with Gabriela Rodriguez. Blanchett will executive produce in addition to starring. CuarAn's most recent feature was the critically-acclaimed film 'Roma', on which he served as writer, director, producer, editor, and cinematographer.
