Apple TV+ sets release date Kristen Wiig-starrer series Palm Royale

Hollywood star Kristen Wiig's upcoming comedy series Palm Royale will make its debut on Apple TV+ on March 20, 2024, the streamer announced on Wednesday.

The streaming service shared the first look of the Palm Beach-set show, which will also feature Oscar winners Laura Dern and Allison Janney as well as Ricky Martin, Josh Lucas, Leslie Bibb, Amber Chardae Robinson, Mindy Cohn, Julia Duffy and Kaia Gerber.

Hollywood legends Bruce Dern and Carol Burnett will be making special appearances in the series, loosely based on the novel “Mr and Mrs American Pie” by Juliet McDaniel, a press release said.

The series’ description reads: “Palm Royale is a true underdog story that follows Maxine Simmons (Kristen Wiig) as she endeavors to break into Palm Beach high society. As Maxine attempts to cross that impermeable line between the haves and the have-nots, Palm Royale asks the same question that still baffles us today: ‘How much of yourself are you willing to sacrifice to get what someone else has?’ Set during the powder keg year of 1969, Palm Royale is a testament to every outsider fighting for their chance to truly belong.”

Abe Sylvia runs Aunt Sylvia's Moving Picture Company as the showrunner, executive producer, and writer. Apple Studios is producing the series on Apple TV+. In addition to Kristen Wiig, Katie O'Connell Marsh, Tate Taylor, and John Norris for Wyolah Films, Sharr White, Sheri Holman, and Boat Rocker, executive producers Laura Dern and Jayme Lemons represent Jaywalker Pictures. The series was directed by Taylor, Sylvia, Claire Scanlon, and Stephanie Laing.
