Starring Laura Linney in her Golden Globe Award-winning and Emmy-nominated role as Cathy Jamison, suburban wife, mother, and teacher whose cancer diagnosis forces her to shake up her life, The Big C will wrap its three-season run with, The Big C: Hereafter, a four-part limited event series designed to bring the story to its conclusion.

The Big C: Hereafter stars Linney, Oliver Platt, John Benjamin Hickey, Gabriel Basso and Gabourey Sidibe. The limited event series is produced by Sony Pictures Television, and was created by Darlene Hunt, who also serves as executive producer, along with showrunner/executive producer Jenny Bicks.
