Here are some photos of Jessica Biel at the Tribeca Film Festival premiere event for her new USA miniseries The Sinner. I honestly didn’t know that Biel was coming back to TV, but here we are. First, the fashion/style: Biel wore a dress from Self-Portrait’s Fall 2017 collection. I don’t really care for the ruffles nor the fabric, but it’s not terrible. I’m also sort of grateful that she pushed back her bangs. Bless.
As for the miniseries, or “limited series,” it’s based on Petra Hammesfahr’s book The Sinner. Biel plays the lead role, a young wife and mother who kills some guy at the beach in front of witnesses. No one knows why she did it. Bill Pullman plays her court-appointed shrink, I think. Here’s the trailer:
I think this looks good? It looks almost like prestige-television and I’m a little bit surprised that it’s on USA and not a premium cable channel. It’s eight episodes and it doesn’t premiere until August, so they’re probably just trying to increase buzz at the Tribeca Film Festival. I will say this… I don’t hate this as a career move for Biel. She tried to do the movie-star thing and people really stopped buying it. There’s nothing wrong with going back to television work, especially if you wait for a prestige-project like this.
