DESCRIPTION:
(from Apple's press release, April 2025) Today, Apple TV+ announced the new seven-episode comedy "Prodigies," starring BAFTA and SAG Award winner Will Sharpe ("The White Lotus," "A Real Pain") and Emmy and SAG Award winner Ayo Edebiri ("The Bear," "After the Hunt"). The series is created, written and directed by Sharpe and produced by the Emmy Award and BAFTA Award-winning SISTER. Edebiri will also serve as an executive producer on the series. This unusual take on a classic romantic comedy explores the universal complexities of long-term relationships through the lens of a very unique couple. Didi (Edebiri) and Ren (Sharpe) are two ex-child prodigies who have been together since they were children. Now in their early 30s, they are starting to question whether their very ordinary existence is living up to the extraordinary promise of their childhood. Inevitably, they find themselves asking the same questions of their relationship. As individual hopes and needs feed into and conflict with their shared lives, the series challenges the fallacy at the heart of romantic storytelling - that the tale is over when the heroes get together. In life, surely, that is just the beginning? |
