Apple TV+ in March 2023 (!) announced a series order for a new, 10-episode half-hour comedy that reunites stars Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey. Created by Emmy Award winner David West Read (upcoming “The Big Door Prize,” “Schitt’s Creek” and Broadway’s “& Juliet”), who will also serve as executive producer, the new comedy will be produced for Apple TV+ by Skydance Television.
The comedy, called “Brothers” (which might be a working title), is a heartfelt odd couple love story revolving around the strange and beautiful bond between Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson. Matthew and Woody’s friendship is tested when their combined families attempt to live together on Matthew’s ranch in Texas.
In addition to starring, Harrelson and McConaughey will executive produce alongside Read. David Ellison, Dana Goldberg and Matt Thunell will serve as executive producers for Skydance Television with Bill Bost and Jeremy Plager.
This series marks the latest collaboration for Apple TV+ and Skydance Television, and joins Apple’s global hit, epic saga “Foundation,” also produced by Skydance Television.
Ana Gutierrez for Austin American-Statesman:
Hold your horses, Austin! Your favorite Texas exports, Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson, have once again brought a touch of Hollywood magic to our downtown streets. The dynamic duo were spotted earlier this week filming scenes for their upcoming comedy series on Apple TV+.
Eyewitness accounts and even some fan-captured footage reveal the actors in eye-catching, matching blue suits, adorned with true Texas symbols like the Lone Star, bluebonnets, and a puzzling snake wearing a football helmet wrapped around a tree.
The reason for the downtown disruption? State Representative Eddie Morales Jr. told the San Antonio Express News he encountered the stars outside Kruger’s Diamond Jewelers. He said they were filming for their new Apple TV+ comedy series “Brothers.”
