Mark Ruffalo's Task, From Mare Of Easttown EP, Gets September Premiere Date On HBO — Watch Trailer

Mark Ruffalo is taking criminals to task this fall.

The network on Tuesday released the full trailer for Task, the forthcoming drama created by Brad Ingelsby (Mare of Easttown), which premieres Sunday, Sept. 7 (HBO, 9/8c), with new episodes airing weekly.

The series is "set in the working class suburbs of Philadelphia," where Tom (Ruffalo), an FBI agent, "heads a task force to put an end to a string of violent robberies led by an unsuspecting family man (Ozark's Tom Pelphrey)," according to the official logline.

As previously reported, the cast also includes Martha Plimpton (Raising Hope), who plays Kathleen McGinty, the career FBI agent "who recruits Tom to head up the task force just as she learns that she is being forced to retire." Meanwhile, Mireille Enos (Killing) co-stars as Susan Brandis, "Tom's loving wife and the heart and soul of the family. She and Tom married young and [she] is the reason he left the priesthood."

Rounding out the large ensemble are Emilia Jones (Locke & Key), Jamie McShane (Wednesday), Sam Keeley (68 Whiskey), Thuso Mbedu (The Underground Railroad), Fabien Frankel (House of the Dragon), Alison Oliver (Saltburn), Raúl Castillo (Looking), Silvia Dionicio (Chicago P.D.) and Phoebe Fox (The Great).
