‘All The Light We Cannot See’: Mark Ruffalo & Hugh Laurie Join Shawn Levy’s New WWII Limited Series

Mark Ruffalo is no stranger to prestige limited series. The actor has had a starring role in the acclaimed HBO series, “I Know This Much is True,” back in 2020. While maybe not a prestige role, the actor is also set to show up in the upcoming Disney+ series, “She-Hulk.” Well, it appears the actor isn’t done with TV yet, as he has already lined up his next gig, “All The Light We Cannot See.”

According to Netflix, the streaming platform has signed Mark Ruffalo and Hugh Laurie to co-star in the upcoming limited series, “All the Light We Cannot See.” The series is based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of the same name from author Anthony Doerr, and it tells the story of a young blind girl (played by newcomer Aria Mia Loberti), who lives in a French museum with her father (Ruffalo) during the beginnings of World War II. The two are trying to protect a precious jewel as they watch the Nazi occupation of France. Laurie is set to play an eccentric and reclusive World War I hero suffering from PTSD who records clandestine radio shows as part of the French Resistance.

“All the Light We Cannot See” is written by Steven Knight and directed by Shawn Levy. Knight is probably best known as the creator and writer behind “Peaky Blinders,” as well as projects such as “Serenity,” “Lock,” and “Taboo.” Levy is probably best known as the filmmaker behind the “Night at the Museum” films, as well as last year’s breakout hit, “Free Guy.” He’s also a producer on “Stranger Things” and a variety of other Netflix series/films.

It’s unclear when production on “All the Light We Cannot See” will begin production, but add this series to the huge number of other projects Netflix has coming out with A-list talent.
