Unforgiven is about a woman who is imprisoned for a violent crime and attempts to rebuild her life upon being released from prison into a society that refuses to forgive her. The original limited series featured actress Suranne Jones as main character "Ruth Slater," who Sandra Bullock will now take over. In the movie adaptation, "Ruth" seeks out her estranged sister whom she was forced to leave behind before going to prison.
