Apple TV Greenlights Disavowed With James Marsden Starring

The pickup signals Apple’s push into star-led spy thrillers from big-screen creators.

Overview

  • Apple TV greenlit the action-thriller series Wednesday, with James Marsden set to star and serve as an executive producer.
  • Marsden plays CIA case officer Brad Griffin, who is fired mid-mission and then pursues a $15 million federal bounty on an elusive assassin.
  • Apple Studios and Blue Marble Pictures produce, with Tom Spezialy, Art Marcum, Matt Holloway, Theresa Kang, Caroline Garity, and Marsden as executive producers.
  • Creators Marcum and Holloway developed the series from their original idea, marking their first TV project after writing Iron Man and Uncharted.
  • Apple has not set a premiere date, and Deadline reports the project began casting last July before Marsden received an offer in September.
