Apple TV is about to kick off four weeks straight of big premieres
Apple TV has a strong fall lineup coming up, including four weeks straight of big premieres that kick off next week with critical hit Slow Horses. Here’s what’s coming.
Slow Horses continues its streak of debuting new seasons every year, and season 6 sounds like a standout winner per reviews.
This British espionage series based on Mick Herron’s novels returns with more dark humor, thrilling plot twists, and the beloved Slough House crew led by Gary Oldman’s Jackson Lamb.
This darkly funny espionage drama follows a team of British intelligence agents who serve in a dumping ground department of MI5 due to their career-ending mistakes. Led by their brilliant but irascible leader, the notorious Jackson Lamb (Academy Award winner Sir Gary Oldman), they navigate the espionage world’s smoke and mirrors to defend England from sinister forces.
Brothers pairs stars and longtime friends Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson in a new comedy series with a fun premise.
The showrunner, Lee Eisenberg, is best known as writer and producer behind some of the best seasons of sitcom The Office.
“Brothers” follows McConaughey and Harrelson, who play fictionalized versions of themselves, and whose lifelong friendship is thrown into chaos when they uncover a decades-old secret: they might actually be brothers. After Woody’s daughter’s wedding falls apart, he loads up the family and heads to Austin for an extended stay at Matthew’s ranch. But what begins as a healing getaway quickly spirals when Matthew’s mother, Ma Mac (played by Holland Taylor), accidentally lets slip a long-buried secret that the two friends might actually be brothers. As Woody turns the ranch upside down in pursuit of the truth, Matthew finds himself juggling an entirely different identity crisis: a potential run for Governor of Texas. The result is a heartfelt, chaotic and wildly funny story about friendship, family, fame and the messy line between myth and reality.
