Garner and Chan are set to co-star in Peacock’s The Five-Star Weekend TV series. Chan joined the cast earlier this year, according to Variety. Their other co-stars include Regina Hall and Chloë Sevigny. The series, which is based on the Elin Hilderbrand novel of the same name, will see Garner playing “a famed food influencer known for her delicious recipes, impeccable taste, and warm demeanor” who “suffers a devastating loss” and whose life consequently begins to unravel.
The cast was spotted filming on Nantucket back in September.
