Starring Hailee Steinfeld, Dickinson is set during Emily Dickinson’s era with a modern sensibility and tone. It takes viewers into the world of Emily, audaciously exploring the constraints of society, gender, and family from the perspective of a budding writer who doesn’t fit into her own time through her imaginative point of view. Production has already begun on the second season.
See is Apple TV+’s big budget sci-fi drama which will star Jason Momoa and Alfre Woodard. It takes place in in a future where humanity has lost the ability to perceive the world with sight. According to the outlet, Apple reportedly spent $240 million for series’ two seasons.
Little America is an immigration-themed anthology series based on the true stories featured in Epic Magazine. It will be executive produced by The Big Sick writers Kumail Nanjiani and Emily V. Gordon.
For All Mankind explores what would have happened if the global space race never ended. The series comes from Golden Globe nominee and Emmy Award winner Ronald D. Moore.
