The Burial Cast & Character Guide

An acclaimed legal drama with a stellar cast, The Burial features two Oscar-winning actors in the roles of its main characters along with many other talented performers. The Burial is based on a true story, taking inspiration from Jonathan Harr’s article of the same name published in The New Yorker in 1999, about a charismatic personal injury lawyer who took up the case of the financially struggling owner of a funeral home. As this duo goes against a corporate giant in the funeral business, the Prime Video original movie’s plot exposes a larger network of economic exploitation and racial injustice.
