‘Apples Never Fall’ Series Preview: Cast, Plot Details and Trailer

Apples Never Fall Annette Bening

Four-time Oscar nominee Annette Bening and two-time Emmy nominee Sam Neill lead the cast of Peacock’s Apples Never Fall, a limited series based on Liane Moriarty’s New York Times bestselling novel. The first official teaser briefly introduces the family at the heart of the story and reveals that beneath the family matriarch’s happy facade lie carefully kept secrets.

Joining Bening and Neill in the seven-episode drama are Jake Lacy, Alison Brie, Conor Merrigan-Turner, and Essie Randles. Georgia Flood, Jeanine Serralles, and Dylan Thuraisingham also star, with Katrina Lenk, Timm Sharp, Nate Mann, Paula Andrea Placido, Pooja Shah, and Quentin Plair guest starring.

Melanie Marnich (The OA) adapted Moriarty’s book for the series and serves as executive producer and showrunner. Author Moriarty also executive produces along with Bening, David Heyman, Gregory Jacobs, Joe Hortua, Albert Page, and Jillian Share. Executive producer Chris Sweeney and Dawn Shadforth direct.

“I’ve never been able to resist a story that feels like an immersive vacation from life…and yet is deliciously about life. Enter: Apples Never Fall, by Liane Moriarty. The riveting and twisty mystery is anchored by the Delaney family, whose wit, wounds, yearning and complexity made me want to translate this great book to television and made me feel like the Delaneys had something to say to all of us,” commented Marnich.

Marnich continued: “Through them, this story dives into the complexities of love, long-term marriage, and the struggle to define oneself within—and beyond—family. It was thrilling to write about the truly grown-up issues the Delaneys are grappling with, like the sometimes brutal sacrifices parents make to keep a marriage and family together. We also take the gloves off when capturing what it takes to be a working mother and wife as we follow Joy into the mystery at the heart of this show.”

Peacock will release all seven episodes on March 14, 2024 for your binge-watching pleasure.

Peacock released this synopsis of the limited series:

Apples Never Fall centers on the seemingly picture-perfect Delaney family. Former tennis coaches Stan (Sam Neill) and Joy (Annette Bening) have sold their successful tennis academy and are ready to start what should be the golden years of their lives. While they look forward to spending time with their four adult children (Jake Lacy, Alison Brie, Conor Merrigan-Turner, Essie Randles), everything changes when a wounded young woman knocks on Joy and Stan’s door, bringing the excitement they’ve been missing.

But when Joy suddenly disappears, her children are forced to re-examine their parents’ so-called perfect marriage as their family’s darkest secrets begin to surface.”
