Fan Casting Catherine Ryder in The Bounty of Ryder Presents — Mace & Sue

Kelly Reilly as Catherine Ryder: Mace's caring and protective mother. Catherine provides emotional stability within the Ryder household and understands Mace's tendency toward recklessness better than most people around him. Although concerned about the dangers of his career, she recognizes that his desire to protect others comes from a genuine sense of compassion rather than a thirst for violence. Her relationship with Mace helps establish the familial values that later influence his approach to raising Charley.
