Kate Winslet is gunning for another Emmy: She'll star in "The Unheard," a limited series in the works at Netflix, Variety reports. Winslet will star alongside Maxine Peake ("Say Nothing") as two sisters who go on the run after "an act of vengeance goes wrong," according to the official description.

"As they are desperately pursued, we ask the question: What pushed them to this reckless act, and was it ever their intention to get away with it?" Jack Thorne, who won an Emmy last year for writing Netflix's "Adolescence," will pen the five-episode series, which is set to shoot next year.
