Mare Winningham Ventures Under the Dome; Learn the Rules of Living in Chester's Mill A new guest star has been announced for “Under the Dome,” and along with that info we have a graphic that explains “The Rules” of what life is now like for the residents of Chester’s Mill.

Per TV Guide, Mare Winningham will appear in at least one episode slated for late August. She will play Agatha, a seemingly warm woman acting as a caretaker for a house. She’ll even welcome Big Jim (Dean Norris) into the home, but we’ll learn that her intentions are anything but sincere as we discover her ties to the town.

“I’m thrilled to be working with Mare Winningham on ‘Under the Dome’,” said executive producer Neal Baer. “She’s my good-luck charm: I worked with her on ‘ER’ as well as on ‘Law & Order: SVU’ (for which she was Emmy-nominated as Best Guest Actress). She brings truth and believability to every role, and she will definitely leave viewers talking.”

As for those rules, if you’ve been wondering exactly what does and does not happen “Under the Dome,” the following graphic should be helpful.

The 13-episode summer series on CBS stars Mike Vogel, Rachelle Lefevre, Dean Norris, Natalie Martinez, Britt Robertson, Alexander Koch, Colin Ford, Nicholas Strong, Jolene Purdy, Ned Bellamy, Natalie Zea, and Aisha Hinds.
