A highly anticipated series
For once, Apple TV+ has unveiled a new program coming to the platform. This time, it’s the first look at “Before,” an atmospheric, character-driven psychological thriller starring award-winning actor, comedian and director Billy Crystal. The 10-episode series, executive produced by Crystal, Academy Award winner Eric Roth and creator Sarah Thorp, will premiere globally on Apple TV+ on Friday, October 25, with the first two episodes, followed by new episodes every Friday through December 20.
The rest of the cast of this supernatural-filled series includes Emmy and Tony Award winner Judith Light (“Transparent”), Academy Award nominee Jacobi Jupe (“Peter Pan & Wendy”), Academy Award nominee Rosie Perez (“The Flight Attendant”), Tony Award nominee Maria Dizzia (“Orange Is the New Black”) and Ava Lalezarzadeh (“In the Garden of Tulips”).
In “Before,” if you haven’t heard the story yet, Crystal plays Eli, a child psychiatrist who, after recently losing his wife Lynn (Light), meets a troubled young boy, Noah (Jupe), who seems to have a haunting connection to Eli’s past. As Eli tries to help Noah, their mysterious bond deepens.
Created by Paramount Television Studiosthe limited series is the work of Thorp (“The Bounty Hunter”), who serves as showrunner, writer and executive producer. Crystal serves as executive producer alongside Roth (“Killers of the Flower Moon,” “Dune”), pilot director Adam Bernstein (“Silo,” “Billions”) and executive producer Jet Wilkinson (“The Chi,” “Truth Be Told”). It’s probably one of the most anticipated shows, which will help tide us over until Season 2 of Presumed Innocent, another thriller series.
