Apple TV+ has today unveiled the release date for its first German language series ‘Where’s Wanda?’, an eight episode dark comety drama produced by UFA Fiction. ‘Where’s Wanda?’ Will launch globally on Apple TV+ on 2nd October, 2024 with two episodes followed by a new episode every Wednesday through 13th November, 2024.
‘Where’s Wanda?’ tells the story of Dedo and Carlotta Klatt (Axel Stein and Makatsch Makatsch), who are desperate to locate their missing 17-year-old daughter Wanda (Lea Drinda), who disappeared months ago without a trace. When the police fail to find her, the family takes matters into their own hands, obtaining surveillance devices with the help of their tech-savvy son Ole (Leo Simon).
Disguising themselves as employees of an electrical company, they bug their neighborhood and then half their suburb, finding out that behind closed doors, none of their neighbors are who they pretend to be.
‘Where’s Wand?’ stars International Emmy Award nominee Heike Makatsch (‘Love Actually’), German Comedy Award winner Axel Stein (‘The Vault’), multiple award-winning actress Lea Drinda (‘The Gryphon’), newcomer Leo Simon, entrepreneur, actress and author Nikeata Thompson (‘How to Dad’), presenter and actress Palina Rojinski (‘Welcome to Germany’), Kostja Ullmann (‘My Blind Date With Life’) and rising star Harriet Herbig-Matten (‘Maxton Hall’).
The series also stars Devid Striesow (‘All Quiet on the Western Front’), Jasmin Shakeri (‘The Magic Flute’) and Joachim Król (‘The Most Desired Man’).
‘Where’s Wanda?’ is created, written and executive produced by Royal Television Society nominee Oliver Lansley (‘Flack’), alongside multiple award-winning executive producers Nataly Kudiabor (‘Arthur’s Law’) and Sebastian Werninger (‘The Physician’). The series is co-created and based on a story by Zoltan Spirandelli (‘Vaya con Dios’).
‘Where’s Wanda?’ is directed by critically acclaimed award-winning filmmakers Christian Ditter (‘How To Be Single’) and Tobi Baumann (‘Faking Hitler’). Ditter also serves as an executive producer. ‘Where’s Wanda?’ will premiere only on Apple TV+ on 2nd October, 2024.
When their daughter goes missing without a trace, the Klatts take matters into their own hands…and find some surprises behind their neighbors’ doors.
