Lifetime's It's a Wonderful Lifetime Christmas Lineup; Zooey Deschanel Joins Apple TV+ Dramedy
In case that's not enough excitement for you - get ready for It's a Wonderful Lifetime Holiday Movie Preview hosted by Sarah Drew! This special will highlight Lifetime’s upcoming 2022 Christmas Movies and will premiere on Lifetime VOD October 27. Grab a cup of cocoa and enjoy sneak peeks, cast interviews and behind the scenes footage from this year's holiday lineup.
Apple TV+ announced that Emmy and Grammy Award-nominee and Critics Choice Award winner Zooey Deschanel has joined the highly anticipated third season of Physical, its hit, half-hour dramedy starring and executive produced by Rose Byrne and hailing from creator, writer and executive producer Annie Weisman, and produced by Tomorrow Studios. Deschanel (New Girl, 500 Days of Summer, The Dating Game and the upcoming Dreamin' Wild and Harold and the Purple Crayon) will play 'Kelly,' a network sitcom star who decides to enter the burgeoning Fitness Industry.
Set in the idyllic but fragile beach paradise of sunny 1980s San Diego, Physical is a half-hour dark comedy following Sheila Rubin (Byrne), a quietly tortured, seemingly dutiful housewife supporting her smart but controversial husband's bid for state assembly. But behind closed doors, Sheila has her own darkly funny take on life she rarely lets the world see. She's also battling a complex set of personal demons relating to her self-image... that is, until she finds release through the unlikeliest source: the world of aerobics. Season two found Byrne having successfully launched her first fitness video only to encounter some new and bigger obstacles on her path. She is torn between loyalty to her husband (Rory Scovel) and the values he represents, and a dangerous attraction to someone else. And since she's no longer the only game in town, she finds herself having to outrun some fierce new competitors on the road to building a full-fledged fitness empire.
