The actor plays Count Alexander Rostov. The series is based on the novel by Amor Towles, which follows the earl in the aftermath of the Russian Revolution. Because he is on the losing side of the fight rather than being executed, he is given the strange punishment of being exiled to an attic room in the luxurious Metropol Hotel.

Ewan McGregor’s wife Mary Elizabeth Winstead will play Anna Urbanova “a glamorous, independent and self-made film actress”.
