Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne reunite for AppleTV+ comedy series Platonic
The Bad Neighbours co-stars hope to re-create the comic magic on the small-screen.
The co-stars of the hit comedy movies Bad Neighbours, Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne, are hoping to recreate their comedic spark when they co-star in AppleTV+ comedy series Platonic.
The 10-part series is the tale of two childhood friends who fell out but meet again later in life and try to work out the reasons behind their fracture. The renewed friendship has big implications for their current relationships, however, and may lead to new decisions and new directions.
According to Variety, Platonic has been co-written by Nick Stoller who, as well as directing the Bad Neighbours movies, also co-wrote the Netflix series Friends from College with Francesca Delbanco, who has teamed up with Stoller on Platonic.
The two stars provide powerful comedy CVs and will undoubtedly attract an audience and possibly new subscribers to AppleTV+.
