Sometimes, a press release just pops up out of nowhere, announcing something you really feel like you should have heard about before now. Apple TV+ revealed… wait. We’re just going to wind up rewording the press release and some marketing professional worked really hard on it, so we should all just let them have the floor for a second:
Apple TV+ reveals a first look at upcoming, star-studded comedy “Palm Royale,” starring Kristen Wiig, Ricky Martin, Josh Lucas, Leslie Bibb, Amber Chardae Robinson, Mindy Cohn, Julia Duffy and Kaia Gerber, with Laura Dern, Allison Janney and extra special guest stars, Bruce Dern and Carol Burnett.
Hailing from Apple Studios, “Palm Royale” will make its highly anticipated debut on March 20, 2024.
Apple TV+ today unveiled a first look at “Palm Royale,” the highly anticipated Palm Beach-set series stars Emmy and Academy Award nominee Kristen Wiig leading a renowned ensemble cast. Oscar and Emmy winners Laura Dern and Allison Janney join Ricky Martin, Josh Lucas, Leslie Bibb, Amber Chardae Robinson, Mindy Cohn, Julia Duffy and Kaia Gerber. With extra special guest star turns by the legendary Bruce Dern and the iconic, multiple-award winning Carol Burnett. “Palm Royale” makes its global debut on Apple TV+, premiering the first three episodes on March 20, 2024 followed by new episodes every Wednesday through May 8.
“Palm Royale” is a true underdog story that follows Maxine Simmons (Kristen Wiig) as she endeavors to break into Palm Beach high society. As Maxine attempts to cross that impermeable line between the haves and the have-nots, “Palm Royale” asks the same question that still baffles us today: “How much of yourself are you willing to sacrifice to get what someone else has?” Set during the powder keg year of 1969, “Palm Royale” is a testament to every outsider fighting for their chance to truly belong.
Loosely based on the novel “Mr. and Mrs. American Pie” by Juliet McDaniel and produced for Apple TV+ by Apple Studios, “Palm Royale” is written, executive produced and showrun by Abe Sylvia for Aunt Sylvia’s Moving Picture Company, executive produced by Laura Dern and Jayme Lemons for Jaywalker Pictures, Kristen Wiig, Katie O’Connell Marsh, Tate Taylor and John Norris for Wyolah Films, Sharr White, Sheri Holman and Boat Rocker. The series is directed by Taylor, Sylvia, Claire Scanlon and Stephanie Laing.
We repeat our initial reaction verbatim: “Wait, what?” This sounds kind of amazing and that cast is insane.
And just to put a cherry on top of the sundae, the costumes and art direction are gorgeous. More, please. And by that we mean a trailer. It will be so disappointing if it doesn’t live up to these pictures.
