Watch the trailer for Pluribus, a thrilling sci-fi drama from Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan. Starring Rhea Seehorn, streaming on Apple TV+from Nov, 2025.
Apple TV+ has posted the trailer for PLURIBUS, the much anticipated new series from the Emmy Award-winning creator of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, Vince Gilligan. The nine-episode sci-fi drama, which is Gilligan’s first big project outside of the Breaking Bad universe in 17 years, will debut on November 7, 2025, and is already causing a stir within the US entertainment industry.
The two-minute official trailer, debuting October 21, 2025, gives a peek at an incredibly disturbing world revolving around Carol Sturka (Rhea Seehorn), who’s “the most miserable person on Earth” and has to “save the world from happiness.” The trailer shows that Carol is the only who appears to be immune to the virus, which has turned the entire global population into perpetually content, optimistic and unnervingly cheerful individuals.
The trailer shows the environment around Carol is unrealistic, everyone is enjoying an ultra level of joy and helpfulness that covers the entire horrible psychology under the wrap of positivity. US President (Peter Bergman) reaches out to Carol through television to turn her into one of them because she is the only one who wasn’t affected by the virus.
As Deadline reports, the series is full of action with explosions, plane crashes, dead bodies, and chaos of marching hordes. The most captivating scene occurs in the 2 minute trailer — Carol asked for a grenade, bazooka, and tank from one of the DHL workers and he said “Oh, sure”.
Carol is alone in her misery and trying to reverse all of this but her head is full of confusing thoughts. It’s the kind of thing that messes with your head but keeps you hooked with its dark humor and sci-fi suspense.
Bob Odenkirk is Gilligan’s trusted partner in crime, and the one who plays the great Saul Goodman in Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Screenrant mentioned Odenkirk told The Hollywood Reporter in an interview: “I don’t know a goddamn thing. But I know it’s going to be massive. Giant! It’s going to be the biggest thing, well, since sliced bread, but really since Game of Thrones.”
Odenkirk also compared PLURIBUS to the Apple TV+ prestige hit Severance, saying, “I think that [PLURIBUS] is going to be the next big show, and I can’t wait”.His excitement is especially interesting as he is not involved with the project at all, which implies honest belief in Gilligan’s vision.
IndieWire also raved on Gilligan’s turn to Twilight Zone – and it asks if happiness is “actually a good thing when it’s universal and unquestioned. The series delves into themes of coerced conformity, the worth of genuine feeling and if the uniform happiness removes the need for humanity.

Critics have praised the trailer as it delivers fascinating, strange sequences in the series. It shows the level of Gilligan’s signature cinematography once again after Breaking Bad.
Gilligan revealed the conceptual origins of PLURIBUS with Entertainment Weekly, Gilligan said the concept initially confused him: “I’m still not exactly sure what it means.” But the relevance of the concept to the divided society we live in today was obvious to him: “There’s no question that we live in a very divided nation. What I love about this series and that potential is the hope that people watching may say, ‘What would that be like, if we all got along?’ There’s probably an element of wish fulfillment in that idea.”
Apple TV+ had already ordered two seasons prior to premiere—a rare move demonstrating extraordinary confidence in Gilligan’s vision. The early renewal can be taken as a sign that Apple sees PLURIBUS as a potential flagship show in the vein of Ted Lasso and Severance.
“When you smile the whole world smiles with you— and Rhea Seehorn is finding out the reverse is also true.” This inversion of optimism into terror marks PLURIBUS as perhaps Gilligan’s most philosophically daring episode to date, posing the question of whether a reality devoid of suffering, strife and genuine feeling is one that deserves salvation—or if, through Carol, misery makes her the last real human being on the planet.
This series will air on 7 November, 2025 on Apple TV with a total of nine episodes in one season. Rhea Seehorn, Karolina Wydra, and Carlos Manuel Vesga are lead actors in the series who take this one on the top of the list.
Explore Run Away on Netflix cast and characters from Harlan Coben’s thriller. Full breakdown of Simon, Paige, Ingrid and supporting roles.
Harlan Coben is back with a new thriller series on Netflix, and this time he’s leading you into the secret, distorted world of Run Away. ‘Run Away’ is adapted from the 2019 novel of the specified name, with a stellar cast bringing its complex characters to life. Limited to one season of eight episodes, the series has held the attention of viewers by way of compelling storytelling and performances. If you’ve already watched the show or are about to watch the show, the cast and their characters will definitely make an impact.
James Nesbitt is at the forefront as Simon Greene, whose life appears perfect until his oldest daughter Paige disappears. Nesbitt, who has played winning roles in other Coben adaptations like Missing You and Stay Close, lends a remarkable depth to a desperate father. Coben also commented on Nesbitt’s versatility, saying:
“There’s a naturalness to him that comes with an ease and warmth, so that you find yourself rooting for Simon — even when you know he’s making all the wrong choices.”
Minnie Driver is Ingrid Greene, Simon’s wife, who keeps the family stable as her husband descends in peril. Driver (The Serpent Queen, the iconic Good Will Hunting) brings emotional heft to the home front chaos at the core of this thriller.
Ellie de Lange is the daughter who had runaway, now a character with addiction issues and secrets, Paige Greene. Coben personally chose de Lange from a multitude of audition tapes, and lauded her strength and vulnerability as an actress – a fine balance key to Paige’s character arc.

Ruth Jones stars as Elena Ravenscroft, an ex-cop-turned-private-eye. Her new case, a missing person, intersects with Simon’s own desperate mission and sends them both hurtling into a labyrinth of mystery and intrigue.
Alfred Enoch (Dean Thomas in Harry Potter) stars as Detective Isaac Fagbenle, who is looking into the murder of a drug dealer, Aaron Corval. When a viral video puts Simon at the center of the crime, Isaac’s pursuit gains momentum—especially as secrets from his past threaten to compromise the case.
Lucian Msamati (Conclave, Gangs of London) is Cornelius Faber, a former soldier now residing in the Marinduque Estate. Cornelius ends up becoming Simon’s friend and confidante, but the unpredictable nature of the former makes for some nervous moments. Msamati describes the character as “a storm waiting to happen.”
The show manages to bring genuinely unsettling characters to life, thanks to Jon Pointing as Ash and Maeve Courtier-Lilley as Dee Dee — two assassins who were raised in foster care and now run around the country wreaking havoc together. Coben characterizes them as
Like a couple plucked from True Romance or Bonnie and Clyde, they’re clearly off the rails — but the way they make their getaway is completely spellbinding.”
The ensemble is further bolstered by Tracy-Ann Oberman as Simon’s barrister Jessica Kinberg, Annette Badland as Lou, and Amy Gledhill as Detective Ruby Todd. Each character in this elaborate web of secrets and lies is needed to bring the story together in ‘Run Away’ on Netflix.
Run Away, the latest from Netflix based on the novels of Harlan Coben, shows us once again why he’s the king. With this all-star cast riveting performances, viewers are taken on an unforgettable journey into darkness and despair.

Presumed Innocent is a gripping Apple TV+ legal thriller starring Jake Gyllenhaal. Read the full review, plot details, cast info, and season 2 updates.
Presumed Innocent has solidified its place as one of the best legal thrillers of 2024, and if you haven’t dived into this tense series on Apple TV+ yet, it’s high time you discovered what all the buzz is about. This reworked version of Scott Turow’s seminal 1987 novel adds new urgency to the screen with Jake Gyllenhaal at the head of a superb ensemble through a whodunit that will keep you guessing until the last.
The narrative revolves around Rusty Sabich, an intelligent chief deputy prosecutor in Chicago who is caught in the worst possible trap when his colleague and ex-partner, Carolyn Polhemus, is savagely killed. Adding to the tragedy is the fact that Rusty is tasked with investigating her death—a jaw-dropping conflict of interest that quickly goes haywire. When his boss is successful election-wise and replaced with Nico Della Guardia, it’s a whole different ballgame. Rusty is taken off the case, and worse, he’s charged with the crime he was definitely doing it.
It’s a trial on steroids and at its core is obsession, betrayal, politics and the very nature of justice itself. The series expertly drops new leads and potential suspects in just about every episode, causing viewers to go through several iterations of who might have actually killed Carolyn.
Jake Gyllenhaal brings that intense presence to his new role as Rusty Sabich, giving a performance that critic after critic is describing as “endlessly watchable” and “stellar.” In contrast to Harrison Ford’s more sympathetic interpretation in the 1990 film version, Gyllenhaal’s Rusty is colder, more ambitious, and at times terrifyingly obsessive.
He’s a guy going through a separation, and balancing his family life, his legal defense, and his frantic need to hold on to some semblance of control — as the world is falling apart around him. That subtle play adds so much to the character and makes him a very interesting character to watch even when he’s being extremely unlikeable.
The series has an exceptional cast that makes each moment memorable. Barbara, Rusty’s wife (Ruth Negga), whose heartbreaking performances encompass the devastation of betrayal and the strength of a family unit. Peter Sarsgaard is thoroughly chilling as Tommy Molto the zealous prosecutor hellbent on nailing Rusty and Bill Camp infuses Raymond Horgan, Rusty’s ex-boss who turns unexpectedly into his staunch ally, with gravitas and nuance. The secondary cast are consistently outstanding across all eight episodes, delivering multi-faceted characters who come across as authentic and driven.

What separates Presumed Innocent from the run-of-the-mill courtroom dramas is the speed and narrative design. According to THR, The eight-episode structure is ideal—each episode ratchets tension in a measured way while tossing new complications your way that challenge your assumptions. There are no time-wasting secondary plots in the series – every single scene works towards this bigger mystery. The trial form which the final episodes are virtually taken up with is indeed gripping, and unexpectedly unpredictable.
The series at times balances the courtroom drama with private family moments that reveal what Rusty and his family members have at stake. These quieter moments help make the legal fights feel truly consequential as opposed to simply procedural.
The first season is set to consist of eight episodes, which will be released weekly on Apple TV+ as of June 12, 2024, with the season finale on July 24. The ending is a shocking reveal that will have you reeling and instantly rewinding key moments to piece it all apart together.
Presumed Innocent will return for a second season on Apple TV+, the streamer’s hit legal thriller has been renewed by Apple TV+. However instead of continuing with Rusty’s story the series is now revolving into an anthology format where each season focuses on a different case and set of characters, as mentioned in Deadline.”That’s what keeps the show fresh and yet captures that legal thriller feel that made the first season so addictive.”
“Presumed Innocent” is a must-see for those who adore legal drama, character-learned narratives or just killer television in any format. It shows that the legal thriller genre still can be when crafted with the sort of excellence and lust for ambition as this one. Watch Presumed Innocent now on Apple TV+ and get ready to be thoroughly entertained.
