Apple orders new Kristen Wiig comedy series

January 19, 2018 by Gary Collinson

Apple has been very active this month in adding to its line-up of original programming, picking up the Octavia Spencer-headlined Are You Sleeping and the Steven Knight-created sci-fi series See, as well as bidding for J.J. Abrams’ as-yet-unrevealed new TV project.

Well, it looks like we can add another show to the list, as THR is reporting that the tech giant has placed a 10-episode order for a new comedy series starring Kristen Wiig, which is based upon Curtis Sittenfeld’s upcoming short-story collection You Think It, I’ll Say It.

Former Saturday Night Live star Wiig will also executive produce the series, which hails from Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine banner. It marks Hello Sunshine’s third sale to apple after the aforementioned Are You Sleeping and an untitled morning TV show drama starring Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston.

SEE ALSO: Is Apple going to buy Netflix?

As yet, it’s unclear how Apple – which also has a reboot of Amazing Stories and a Ronald D. Moore space race drama on its slate – plans to roll out its original content, but we should probably expect an official announcement soon.
