EXCLUSIVE: Henry Eikenberry (Euphoria) and Roberta Colindrez (A League of Their Own, Cassandro) have joined the cast of Peacock’s The Five Star Weekend in recurring guest roles. Bekah Brunstetter created the project based on Elin Hilderbrand’s bestselling novel The Perfect Couple.
The Five-Star Weekend centers on Hollis Shaw (Jennifer Garner), a famed food influencer known for her delicious recipes, impeccable taste, and warm demeanor, who suffers a devastating loss. Unable to move forward, the death exposes the cracks in Hollis’s picture-perfect life — her strained marriage, her complicated relationship with her daughter, and her growing pursuit of validation from her followers.
To overcome grief and find herself again, Hollis gets the idea to host a weekend away at her house on Nantucket with three friends from different stages in her life: her childhood, her 20s, 30s, and one surprise fifth star. Set against a luxurious and coastal backdrop, they will mature in ways they could never imagine as boundaries are pushed and secrets are exposed.
Regina Hall, Chloë Sevigny, Judy Greer, and D’Arcy Carden also star.
Eikenberry will play Dylan Leclaire, a handsome, laid-back but goofy young man balancing fatherhood and struggling to figure out what he truly wants.
Colindrez will play Sunny, a passionate tour guide in Nantucket with a connection to Brooke (Carden).
Brunstetter, Garner and Hilderbrand executive produce alongside series writer Beth Schacter, Sue Naegle, Ali Krug, and Merri Howard.
Eikenberry recently wrapped production on Kornél Mundruczó’s next film, At The Sea, opposite Amy Adams. He can currently be seen in Ryan Murphy’s Hulu anthology series, American Horror Stories, and stars in the Indie film Hold Up, written and directed by Ori Guendelman. He is best known for playing Derek in Sam Levinson’s HBO hit series Euphoria. He was also seen in The Crowded Room on Apple TV+ opposite Tom Holland, and the Focus Features horror comedy Lisa Frankenstein, written by Diablo Cody. He also starred opposite Sabrina Carpenter in her music video for ‘Santa Doesn’t Know You Like I Do,’ which has garnered over 8M views since its release. Eikenberry is repped by Linden Entertainment and Gersh.
Colindrez recently wrapped production on Siân Heder’s Being Heumann, about disability activist Judy Heumann, for Apple Studios. Earlier this year, she starred in Leslye Headland’s Broadway production of Cult of Love. Recent credits include Eric (Netflix), Cassandro (Amazon), and Prime Video’s A League of Their Own. Colindrez originated the role of Joan in the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical Fun Home, partnering again with its author Alison Bechdel and Madeleine George for Dykes to Watch Out For (Audible).
She reunited with Sam Gold for The Public Theater’s production of Hamlet, starring Oscar Isaac. Other memorable collaborations on TV include Tanya Saracho on the Starz series Vida, Joey Soloway on the Prime Video series I Love Dick, David Simon for the HBO series The Deuce, and Lena Dunham for HBO’s Girls.
