Maya Hawke Buys Home Near Uma Thurman As She Films Netflix’s The God of the Woods

Hawke says the purchase lets her put down roots to ease the pressure of balancing work and home life.

Overview

  • Hawke told People on Sunday that she purchased a house a few blocks from her mother Uma Thurman in upstate New York.
  • The move coincides with production of Netflix’s adaptation of Liz Moore’s bestselling novel, which is filming in the Hudson River Valley and the Adirondacks where Hawke grew up.
  • Hawke is starring as Judy Luptack, the first female investigator in the state Bureau of Criminal Investigation who is assigned to probe the disappearance of a 13-year-old girl, a role described by Netflix as part of a multigenerational drama about family secrets and class divisions.
  • The series is produced by Sony Pictures Television with Neal H. Moritz and Pavun Shetty listed among executive producers, and no release date has been announced.
  • The home purchase and local filming follow Hawke’s surprise Valentine’s Day wedding to musician Christian Lee Hutson and are meant to let her combine family life with a high-profile role, a shift that could ease her personal logistics and keep production close to the region that inspired the story.
