Amazon Prime Video's highly anticipated series 'The Widow,' premiered March 1 with raving reviews and Kate Beckinsale's fans have all the more reason to love her. The 45-year-old Beckinsale shines as Georgia Wells, an apparent widow, who embarks on a mission to find her supposed dead husband in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), where his plane crashed three years ago.

Cue is the orange cap her husband, Will Mason, wore the day he went to Africa. Spotting a man wearing the same cap on a cable news channel reporting a riot in the DRC, Georgia Wells is convinced her husband is alive. Added to the suspicion is the fact that his dead body was never found. Without thinking about her own safety, and what people think about her conviction, Wells selflessly embarks on a mission to find her husband.
