Apple TV+ has announced a series order for “Roar,” a new anthology series of darkly comic feminist fables that will star Nicole Kidman, Cynthia Erivo, Merritt Wever, and more to be announced soon.
Created by Liz Flahive and Carly Mensch (“GLOW”), and based on a book of short stories by Cecelia Ahern, “Roar” is a collection of eight half-hour genre-bending episodes, told from a uniquely female point of view.
The series is the first to be released under Mensch and Flahive’s overall deal with Apple.
Apple TV+ is available on the Apple TV app in over 100 countries and regions, on over 1 billion screens, including iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, iPod touch, Mac, select Samsung, LG, Sony and VIZIO smart TVs, Amazon Fire TV and Roku devices, Chromecast with Google TV, PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and at tv.apple.com, for $4.99 per month with a seven-day free trial.
