There was a stretch of time there, over the last year or so, where it felt like Apple was signing exclusive multi-year deals with so many different people on a regular basis. That simmered down a bit, especially recently. But the company isn't quite done with that particular plan of attack for securing films, series, and documentaries for Apple TV+.
Severance has been a long time coming for Apple TV+. The workplace thriller was first announced way back in November of 2019, with the news that Adam Scott (Big Little Lies) attached to star. It didn't take long before we learned that Patricia Arquette (The Act) would be taking up a lead role in the project as well. It wouldn't be until a little over two years later that we finally saw the first teaser trailer, though.
If you have been a fan of the documentary options offered by Apple TV+ so far, there is a new one you might want to keep on your radar coming soon. Announced today, it has a pretty quick turnaround time to actually premiering on the streaming service, too.
Samuel L. Jackson (Pulp Fiction) is not a stranger to having work released on Apple TV+. The Banker came out some time ago, after all. But now he has a new project, The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey, coming soon to the streaming service. And now we finally know when it's premiering.
The Morning Show is a launch title for Apple TV+. It helped bring Apple's video streaming service into the limelight for awards seasons, to be sure, even if things started out a little rough. So a renewal for a second season wasn't all that surprising.
Apple already has quite a bit of family-friendly content to watch on Apple TV+. The company bet big on the Peanuts franchise, for instance. They did the same with Fraggle Rock, too, securing the streaming rights of old episodes while ordering fresh content starring the alien puppets. And now one of those new entries is set to premiere later this month.
Back in November of 2019, Apple TV+ gave a full series order to a workplace thriller called Severance. At that time, we learned that the series would be directed by Ben Stiller (Night at the Museum), and that it would star Adam Scott (Big Little Lies). We've been waiting ever since for our first look at what to expect, and now we finally have it.
Ted Lasso already has a holiday-themed episode as part of its latest season. But apparently that didn't stop the creative crew behind the show from putting together something a little bit more. And that's why we now have a holiday short film, which is animated.
Apple is coming in hot with another family-friendly series, which is set to arrive in the early goings of 2022. This one's based on a graphic novel memoir, and Apple's going all-in with the binge-worthy content this time around, too.
News initially broke about the upcoming thriller series Suspicion way, way back in March of last year. At the time, we heard that Uma Thurman (Kill Bill, Pulp Fiction) had been tapped to take the leading role in the show. We learned a bit about the plot line, but, otherwise, details were pretty thin.
Ahead of the third season's debut, the creator of the hit thriller series Servant, has taken to his official Twitter account to announce some big news. Fans of the show can not only expect to see one more season, but this means that the creator will be able to wrap up the story in the amount of episodes he originally wanted.
The Afterparty, a murder-mystery series that's coming soon to Apple TV+, has felt like it's been in development for a long while now. At least on Apple TV+'s slate for that long, at least. But we know it's set to premiere on the streaming service in January of next year, so it's finally time to really start drumming up attention.
