Apple TV has made crime thrillers one of its biggest genres, and that trend will only continue with three unique new series premiering soon. Here’s what’s coming.
Matthew Rhys (‘The Beast in Me’) stars as the mayor of a small New England town—Widow’s Bay—that just might be cursed.
Widow’s Bay premieres Wednesday, April 29 with its first two episodes, followed by weekly releases through June 17, and a special two-episode drop on May 27.
Here’s Apple’s series summary and latest trailer:
“Widow’s Bay” is a quaint island town 40 miles off the coast of New England. But something lurks beneath the surface. Mayor Tom Loftis (Matthew Rhys) is desperate to revive his struggling community. There’s no Wi-Fi, spotty cellular reception and he must contend with superstitious locals who believe their island is cursed. He wants these people to respect him. They don’t. They think he is soft and cowardly. And he is. But Loftis is determined to build a better future for his teenage son and turn the island into a tourist destination. Miraculously, he succeeds: tourists are finally coming. Unfortunately, the locals were right. After decades of calm, the old stories that seemed too ludicrous to be true, start happening again.
What happens when a family vacation turns into your worst nightmare, and a dear loved one is exposed as someone you never could have imagined? That’s the premise behind new thriller Unconditional.
Unconditional hits Apple TV on Friday, May 8 with its first two episodes, followed by weekly releases through June 19.
Here’s the series summary and trailer:
“Unconditional” follows a mother-daughter vacation-turned-nightmare when 23-year-old Gali (Ronn) is arrested for drug smuggling in Moscow. Her mother, Orna (Chamami), refuses to accept the charges — but her fight for Gali’s freedom pulls her into a deadly web of crime and corruption.
Led by Tatiana Maslany (‘Orphan Black, ‘The Monkey’) and Jake Johnson (‘New Girl’), Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed is a new crime thriller with a dark comedic twist.
Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed debuts Wednesday, May 20 with its first two episodes, followed by weekly releases through July 15.
Here’s the plot summary, followed by the trailer:
“Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed” follows newly divorced mom Paula (Maslany) as she falls down a dangerous rabbit hole of blackmail, murder and youth soccer. Convinced she witnessed a crime — while simultaneously struggling through a custody battle and an identity crisis — Paula begins her own investigation, one that could unravel a greater conspiracy while also holding the keys to rebuilding her family and sense of self.
