Are you ready to dive into the intriguing world of the Delaney family?

Apples Never Fall, the highly anticipated limited drama series based on Liane Moriarty’s best-selling novel of the same name, is set to premiere on March 14, 2024.

With an ensemble cast led by Annette Bening and Sam Neill, this gripping tale promises a rollercoaster of emotions, secrets, and family dynamics.

Sam revealed to The Hollywood Reporter why he signed on for this project, saying it was because he loved another one of Liane’s television adaptations.

“I thought Big Little Lies was one of the best things I’d ever seen on television, and I thought if it’s as involving and intriguing as that then I want to be a part of it, and I read it and it was. And then were was Annette Bening, and who could say no to that?”

Annette noted that she just “wanted to do something different,” following Nyad – the biographical sports drama film about swimmer Diana Nyad, for which Annette was nominated for Best Actress at the 2024 Oscars.
