The six-hour show is based on Lisa Belkin’s eponymous nonfiction book, which was billed as a “A Tale of Murder, Suicide, Race, and Redemption” when it was published in 1999\. The protagonist of _Show Me A Hero_ is Nick Wasicsko (Oscar Issac), the mayor of Yonkers, New York in the late 1980s who, to the detriment of his political career, was court-ordered to build 200 units of low-income public housing in a more upscale, whiter side of town. Ryder will play Vinni Restiano, a Yonkers councilwoman who loses her seat after her housing vote, THR reports. Ryder also joins actress Catherine Keener, who will portray Mary Dorman, an East Yonkers homeowner who comes to a “remarkable realization” of where to build the units. Bernthal will portray Michael H. Sussman, a top NAACP lawyer and Molina will play councilman Henry J. “Hank” Spallone, an anti-housing advocate and former NYPD detective from the Bronx. \[[_THR_](http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/winona-ryder-walking-dead-favorite-726625?utm%5Fsource=twitter)\] Winona Ryder Will Join David Simon's Show Me A Hero ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3151488/winona-ryder-david-simon-show-me-a-hero/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3151488/winona-ryder-david-simon-show-me-a-hero/"},"headline":"Winona Ryder Will Join David Simon's Show Me a Hero","datePublished":"2014-08-21T01:34:25.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-21T09:46:38.553Z","description":"Winona Ryder will star alongside Oscar Issac and Catherine Keener","url":"https://time.com/3151488/winona-ryder-david-simon-show-me-a-hero/","keywords":["celebrities"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltb45c4f1f2c761271/6986a0591eebf7fba4372546/winona-ryder.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Alex Rogers","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/alex-rogers/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltb45c4f1f2c761271/6986a0591eebf7fba4372546/winona-ryder.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Actress Winona Ryder attends special screening of \"Turks and Caicos\" hosted by Vogue and The Cinema Society at the Crosby Street Hotel on April 7, 2014, in New York.","caption":"Actress Winona Ryder attends special screening of \"Turks and Caicos\" hosted by Vogue and The Cinema Society at the Crosby Street Hotel on April 7, 2014, in New York.","creditText":"Evan Agostini—Invision/AP","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3151488/winona-ryder-david-simon-show-me-a-hero/","name":"Winona Ryder Will Join David Simon's Show Me a Hero"}}]}] ```
