Apple TV unveils a mysterious, genre-bending series with a grumpy hero determined to resist happiness.
Apple TV has released the first trailer of its upcoming drama series Pluribus, featuring Rhea Seehorn in the role of Carol - a character who is always unhappy. The maiden two episodes of the series are all set to premiere on November 7, followed by weekly episodes every Friday till December 26, Deadline reported.
Mysterious plot
The nine-episode drama series has been a highly secretive project. The story follows “the most miserable person on Earth,” tasked with saving the world from happiness. The trailer shows Carol resisting every attempt to cheer her up, including a fancy breakfast left at her door, which she throws into the garbage.
At one point, Carol expresses a desire to “reverse all this,” while a voice reassures her: “Rest assured, Carol. We will figure out what makes you different.”
‘Genre-bending’ style
Apple TV said Pluribus is “genre-bending,” so that audiences have no idea and are left guessing if it is a comedy, sci-fi, thriller, fantasy or horror. Vince Gilligan, known for combining dark drama with humor, keeps viewers unsure of what to expect. Rhea Seehorn says it is thought-provoking, upsetting and funny, suspenseful, humorous and emotional.
