Apple TV Plus Showbiz and Celebrity Breaking News

What if you went every day saying the inside things you’re not supposed to say out loud? That’s kinda what it’s like to exist in “Strange Planet.” As seen in the trailer for “Strange Planet,” the new Apple TV+ adult animated series takes place in a world very similar to our own but filled with blue alien-looking beings instead of humans. But they still exist in a world that has coffee shops, air travel, dogs, etc… The big difference is that these beings lack the awareness to keep things inside.

In the 1980s, perhaps no one typified beauty, glamor, and sex appeal more than the big four, “The Super Models” —Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Linda Evangelista, and Christy Turlington. These runaway models were everywhere, and perhaps nothing epitomized their global allure more than George Michael’s steamy “Freedom” video, which featured all of these women plus Tatjana Patitz and was directed with erotic sweatiness by none other than David Fincher.

While he isn’t so much of a household name to non-basketball fans as LeBron James, Stephen Curry is one of the best NBA players of the past 20 years. And he’s getting the spotlight in the new Apple TV+/A24 doc, “Stephen Curry: Underrated.” READ MORE: Summer 2023 Movie Preview: 52 Must-See Films To Watch As seen in the trailer for the documentary, “Stephen Curry: Underrated” tells the story of Curry, from his time as an undersized, overlooked young college player to his rise in the NBA and becoming one of the elite stars.

Tom Holland might be a superhero and “Spider-Man,” but perhaps rather wisely, the young actor understands he won’t be young forever and knows he needs to create an acting pipeline outside of just Marvel. He’s already done work like that with the Russo Brothers in “Cherry,” and the next project in that vein is “The Crowded Room,” a gripping, upcoming Apple TV+ limited series starring and executive produced by Holland and created by Academy Award-winning writer and executive producer Akiva Goldsman.

In today’s episode of Bingeworthy, our TV and streaming podcast, host Mike DeAngelo dives deep underground with Apple TV+’s new sci-fi mystery series, “Silo.” Created by Graham Yost (“Justified,” “Sneaky Pete,” “Speed”), the show follows the last survivors of a toxic Earth who live in an underground silo and live by strict tenets set in place by the government to ensure their survival.

On paper, the comedic pairing of Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne shouldn’t work nearly as well as it does. However, as was proven in the two “Neighbors” films, these two have incredible chemistry and comedic timing with each other.

Who killed a young girl in Central Park? That’s the question at the heart of the new mystery thriller series, “City on Fire.” As seen in the trailer for the Apple TV+ series, the show follows the story of a group of friends trying to figure out why their friend, Samantha, was shot and killed. As they dig deeper into the case, they uncover more secrets that point to even bigger problems.

The first season of Apple TV+’s “Schmigadoon!” didn’t quite live up to its clever concept or undeniably talented ensemble. In a fascinating twist worthy of a great Broadway show, the second season actually makes the first year better by revealing it to be the foundation on which this year is built.

Earlier this year, folks were obsessed over the Apple TV+ ads featuring Timothee Chalamet, which basically feature the actor lamenting over the fact that nearly every A-list actor has a project in the works for the streamer except him. Well, poor Timmy isn’t going to be happy to learn that Jessica Chastain is the latest to get an Apple TV+ project.

Milestone birthdays are a time for celebration, often accompanied by a dose of introspection the older you get. The time frame to achieve life goals begins to shrink, and a regretful mood can replace a hopeful vision of the future.

Hollywood pals Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson (“Triangle of Sadness“) led the acclaimed HBO serial killer series “True Detective,” and before the grim thriller, the pair had previously worked together on feature film comedies such as “Surfer, Dude” and Ron Howard‘s “EdTV.” The duo is now looking to reunite for a new untitled comedy series at Apple TV+.

Apple TV+‘s latest series, “The Last Thing He Told Me,” is an adaptation of the book of the same name written by Laura Dave, who is also one of the show’s co-creators alongside Josh Singer and Lauren Neustadter. The novel was published in May 2021 and quickly became a bestseller, having sold almost two million copies in the United States alone and remained a New York Times bestseller for more than a year.

We are very close to the release of Season 3 of the Emmy-winning Apple TV+ comedy series, “Ted Lasso.” And though it’s been speculated and hinted at that Season 3 could be the end of the road for the series, nothing has been confirmed—until now.  In an interview with Deadline, Jason Sudeikis, the star of “Ted Lasso,” confirmed that Season 3 is the end of the series.

Meeting that special someone can be a real adventure. That’s the premise of “Ghosted,” a new high-concept romantic action adventure film starring Chris Evans and Ana de Armas.

There seems to be no shortage of post-apocalypse content nowadays. Obviously, the TV world is dominated by “The Last of Us” discussions, but even before then, we had recent shows like “Sweet Tooth,” “Station 11,” “Y: The Last Man,” and about a dozen different “The Walking Dead” series.

With the rise of post-apocalyptic cinema at the turn of the century, humanity has gotten very good at depicting our own demise. We continue to be much worse at depicting the transitional period before complete collapse — and finding hope in the possibility that destruction is not a foregone conclusion.

As Timothée Chalamet recently attested, it’s been a boom time for Apple TV+. In the two years since the height of the pandemic, the streaming service has more than doubled its subscriber count and built a library of content rivaling competitors like Netflix and HBO Max.

Almost two weeks ago, Apple TV+ went viral thanks to a silly ad that was released starring Timothée Chalamet. In the ad, Chalamet is surrounded by all of these announcements of Apple TV+ content with some of the biggest names in Hollywood… except him.

Television that makes you cry is something Jason Katims (“Friday Night Lights,” “Parenthood”) is well known for, and his latest on Apple TV+, “Dear Edward,” is no exception to this rule.

One can only imagine the blank check that Bill Lawrence has from Apple TV+ after the massive success of his “Ted Lasso,” which he co-created and has won the company dozens of awards, putting them on the TV map. He used that cachet for this week’s likable dramedy “Shrinking,” a show that almost brazenly sets up character archetypes and then asks its cast to push through the clichés of their shallow descriptions.

Apple TV+’s latest comedy series, “Hello Tomorrow!” will be set in a retro-future world and follow a group of salesmen, featuring a cast including Billy Crudup, Hank Azaria, Haneefah Wood, Alison Pill, Nicholas Podany, Dewshane Williams, Matthew Maher, and Jacki Weaver. The show is co-created by Amit Bhalla and Lucas Jansen, who are previously known for having written episodes of Netflix’s “Bloodline.” READ MORE: The 70 Most Anticipated TV Shows & Mini-Series Of 2023 Its plot synopsis reads, “Set in a retro-future world, “Hello Tomorrow!” centers around a group of traveling salesmen hawking lunar timeshares.

You might not think that a TV series about a therapist struggling with the death of his wife and a career listening to other people talk about their issues would be a comedy from the co-creator of “Ted Lasso.” And yet, “Shrinking” does appear to be another Bill Lawrence-produced, feel-good comedy, coming to Apple TV+ later this month. As mentioned, in the trailer for “Shrinking,” we see the series follows the story of a grieving therapist (Jason Segel), as he struggles to come to terms with his wife’s sudden passing, while also raising a young daughter and trying to balance a career.

It’s almost hard to believe that Apple TV+ is old enough already to have a show about to reach its conclusion after four seasons, but that’s where we are with the underrated “Servant,” a twisted little gem that was created by Tony Basgallop and executive produced by M. Night Shyamalan (who has also directed a few episodes).

The first season of “Foundation” was a somewhat surprising success for Apple TV+. Sure, it’s the long-awaited adaptation of a classic series of sci-fi novels.

Given the glut of content, making time for short films is hard. But the new Apple TV+ animated short film “The Boy, The Mole, The Fox, And The Horse” looks like something special.

Shortly after the dust settled and people started to fully comprehend that Will Smith actually slapped Chris Rock on live TV watched by millions at the Oscars, one of the first questions was about what might happen to his upcoming film, “Emancipation.” This is a movie that was seemingly primed and ready for a huge Oscars push this year and possibly another win for Smith as the lead actor.

Seth Rogen, along with his producing partner Evan Goldberg, know a thing or two about working with major Hollywood studios. Some might even say the duo have cracked the studio code by being able to make widely-seen comedy films and TV series with studios while also retaining a lot of creative control.

The second season of Apple TV+’s “Mythic Quest” ended in a manner that could have been a series finale, getting several characters to a finish line while blowing up some others. So what now? The sad news is that the sense that the show is rebooting its themes and characters during the third season (and setting up a fourth that has already been commissioned) leads to a bit more lackluster writing than the first couple of years.

With credits like “The Hurt Locker” and “Zero Dark Thirty,” it’s clear that writer Mark Boal knows how to craft an exciting military thriller. Considering that pedigree, you have every right to be excited about his new TV series, “Echo 3.” As seen in the trailer for “Echo 3,” the series follows the story of a young scientist who is kidnapped by baddies in Venezuela.

What’s better than a workplace comedy focused on the day-to-day operations of a company filled with whacky employees? A workplace comedy focused on TWO companies filled with whacky employees. Welcome to “Mythic Quest” Season 3.

Selena Gomez has really come into her own in recent years. While she could have been just another teen pop star footnote, the ex-gf of Justin Bieber, etc., Gomez has really cultivated herself as something more meaningful, full of depth, and not afraid to speak her mind.

It’s been nearly three years since the Jennifer Lawrence-starring drama “Causeway” shot, the pandemic didn’t help, but now, the Apple TV+ film is finally coming out and the first trailer has arrived.

Back in March 2019, it was reported that Taika Waititi had worked out a deal to co-write and direct a new reimagining of “Time Bandits” for Apple TV+. However, since then, there really hasn’t been much concrete news about the show.
