Mrs. Fletcher, based on the bestselling novel of the same name by Tom Perrotta and starring Kathryn Hahn, debuts Sunday, October 27 on HBO.

The seven-episode limited series is a dual coming-of-age story chronicling the personal and sexual journeys of an empty-nest mother and her college freshman son, who both embrace their newfound freedom with mixed results. As the series begins, Eve Fletcher (Hahn), a mid-40s single mom who works as the executive director of a senior center, drops her only child off at college and returns home to a very empty house.

'Mrs. Fletcher' EP & Author Tom Perrotta on Eve Expanding Her World

Kathryn Hahn plays empty nester Eve Fletcher in the HBO adaptation of Perrotta's novel.

Meanwhile, Eve’s son Brendan (Jackson White), a popular (though sometimes clueless) jock, finds college is a little more complicated than he expected and struggles to make connections with his more socially and politically aware fellow students. As mother and son find themselves alone for the first time, this sharp, provocative series navigates themes of parenthood, sexuality, love, and identity in a cultural moment when attitudes about gender and sex are evolving rapidly.

The cast also includes Owen Teague, Katie Kershaw, Domenick Lombardozzi, Cameron Boyce, Jen Richards and Casey Wilson.
