Oscar winner Sissy Spacek is headed to Netflix -- not to sort through possible choices for Movie Night, but to star in the streaming service's newest drama.

Spacek, who won an Oscar in 1980 for her role as Loretta Lynn in Coal Miner's Daughter, will play the mother of Kyle Chandler and Linda Cardellini in Netflix’s Untitled Kessler/Zelman/Kessler Project.

The thriller, created by Damages masterminds Todd A. Kessler, Daniel Zelman and Glenn Kessler, tells the story of a family of adult siblings whose "secrets and scars are revealed when the black sheep oldest brother returns home." No word on when the show is scheduled to begin filming, but it's already among the most high-profile projects of next year's TV season. It's certainly got a hell of a pedigree behind it, so I'm positively stoked to see how it all turns out. There's not an actor in this cast that I don't love. (Seriously, if you haven't seen Coal Miner's Daughter, definitely go out of your way to do so)
