Apple TV+ has placed orders for a new bilingual thriller drama series ‘Now And Then’ that will be shot in English and Spanish. Produced by Bambú Producciones for Apple TV+, ‘Now And Then’ will be created by Ramón Campos, Teresa Fernández-Valdés and Gema R. Neira, the same team behind ‘Velvet’, ‘Cable Girls’ and ‘Grand Hotel’.
As per Apple, ‘Now And Then’ will be set in Miami and is a multi-layered thriller that explores the differences between youthful aspirations and the reality of adulthood, when the lives of a group of college best friends are forever changed after a celebratory weekend ends up with one of them dead. Now, 20 years later, the remaining five are reluctantly reunited by a threat that puts their seemingly perfect worlds at risk.
Featuring an all Hispanic cast, the first two episodes of Apple’s ‘Now And Then’ will be executive produced and directed by Gideon Raff (‘The Spy’, ‘Homeland’). Campos and Fernández-Valdés will serve as showrunners, and the series will be written by Neira and Campos with their team.
