Cast for Untitled Erin Foster Comedy; Peacock's Apples Never Fall Gets Premiere Date
Netflix announced the additions of Justine Lupe and Timothy Simons to the Untitled Erin Foster Show, a new comedy series from creator and executive producer Erin Foster. They join previously announced series stars Kristen Bell and Adam Brody. A comedy centered on the unlikely relationship between an outspoken, agnostic woman, Joanne (Kristen Bell), and an unconventional rabbi, Noah (Adam Brody). Justine Lupe (Succession, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Cristela, Mr. Mercedes) joins as "Morgan" - Joanne's (Bell) charming-yet-cutting, quick-witted sister who doesn't feel the need to strive for more than she already has - which happens to be a hit podcast with her sibling, built around their buzzy banter and ride-or-die commitment to being alone together. Timothy Simons (Don't Worry Darling, Candy, VEEP) joins as "Sasha" - Noah's (Brody) outlandish, eccentric, delusionally confident older brother who loves living vicariously through his "golden child" sibling.
Also joining in Recurring Guest Stars roles:
o Jackie Tohn (GLOW, Old Dads, Gen V) as "Esther" - Sasha's wife and Noah's sister-in-law, who doesn't suffer fools.
o Michael Hitchcock (Black Monday, Grand Death Lotto, Exmas) as "Henry" - Joanne and Morgan's newly out-of-the-closet father, who is "gay, opinionated and owning it!"
o Paul Ben-Victor (Pam & Tommy, The Irishman) plays "Ilan" - Noah's father, who also acts as his moral compass.
o Sherry Cola (Good Trouble, Joy Ride) plays "Ashley" - Joanne's lesbian, no-nonsense best friend.
o Shiloh Bearman (Home Economics) plays Miriam - Sasha and Esther's earnest teen daughter.
o Stephanie Faracy (Uncoupled, Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates) plays "Lynn" - Joanne and Morgan's recently-divorced mother with a New Age propensity for the mystical.
o Tania Raymonde (Goliath, Lost) plays "Rebecca" - Noah's "perfect" Jewish girlfriend who has done "everything right" to get him to propose.
o Tovah Feldshuh (The Walking Dead, Funny Girl) plays "Bina" - Noah's coldly aloof mother, a woman for whom family is everything.
Peacock has announced the premiere date and trailer for Apples Never Fall. The series drops on March 14 for a 7 episode binge. Based on Liane Moriarty's New York Times bestselling novel, Apples Never Fall centers on the seemingly picture-perfect Delaney family. Former tennis coaches Stan (Sam Neill) and Joy (Annette Bening) have sold their successful tennis academy and are ready to start what should be the golden years of their lives. While they look forward to spending time with their four adult children (Jake Lacy, Alison Brie, Conor Merrigan-Turner, Essie Randles), everything changes when a wounded young woman knocks on Joy and Stan's door, bringing the excitement they've been missing. But when Joy suddenly disappears, her children are forced to re-examine their parents' so-called perfect marriage as their family's darkest secrets begin to surface.
