Apple TV+ has announced Jessica Chastain and Ben Stiller will EP and star in new limited series The Off Weeks

Apple TV+ announced it will expand its award-winning series slate with The Off Weeks, a thrilling new eight-episode limited series starring and executive produced by Jessica Chastain (upcoming The Savant) and Ben Stiller (Severance), directed by Michael Showalter (The Idea of You, The Dropout), and showrun by Alissa Nutting (Made for Love).

What is The Off Weeks about?

From the announcement:

When divorce throws writing professor Gus Adler’s life into chaos, he struggles to hold things together during “on weeks” when he has custody of his kids. But in his “off weeks,” he’s falling dangerously in love with Stella West, a mysterious woman whose arrival puts Gus’ on-week duties and off-week ambitions on a fatal collision course.

Given Stiller’s involvement in Severance, we expect a lot of interest in this project. We will, as ever, keep you posted. Until then, you might want to take a look at Chastain in upcoming The Savant — here’s a trailer:
