Los Angeles: Emmy winner Susanne Bier has been roped in to direct the upcoming HBO limited series The Undoing starring Nicole Kidman.

Bier, who won a 2016 Emmy for directing AMC's miniseries The Night Manager, will also serve as executive producer on the show.

The limited series is an adaptation of Jean Hanff Korelitz book You Should Have Known.

The Undoing will focus on Grace Sachs (Kidman), a successful therapist who is about to publish her first book when disaster strikes - someone dies, her husband goes missing, and her perfect life with her son is turned upside down.
