Apple on Thursday announced that popular workplace drama “The Morning Show” will return to Apple TV for a fifth and final season in 2027. An exact date for the final season premiere hasn’t bee announced.
The series was among the flagship original titles that launched the Apple TV streaming service in 2019, and has since been appreciated by both fans and critics around the globe. “The Morning Show” is from television studio Media Res and produced by Echo Films and Hello Sunshine.
The ensemble cast includes Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, Billy Crudup, Mark Duplass, Nestor Carbonell, Karen Pittman, Nicole Beharie and Emmy Award winner Jon Hamm. New additions for season five, include Jeff Daniels, Reneé Rapp, Jesse Williams, Sean Hayes, Lizzy Caplan and more.
“From the beginning, Apple has supported our vision for ‘The Morning Show,’ and we feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to tell stories that reflect what’s happening in the world around us with a twist of dark humor,” said star and executive producer Jennifer Aniston. “It’s been such a privilege to work with this insanely talented cast and our extraordinary writers, producers and crew. We’ve become such a family, and we’re all so excited to share this final season. And going in knowing it would be our last, we were so fortunate to craft the conclusion with intentionality and honor these characters the way they deserve.”
“The past nine years producing and acting in ‘The Morning Show’ have been the honor of a lifetime,” said star and executive producer Reese Witherspoon. “This was always more than a show about a newsroom — it was a show about why the newsroom matters. About freedom of the press and the journalists who protect the fourth estate, often at great cost. Telling that story has been the creative privilege of my career. Thank you to Apple for their unwavering support, to our visionary writers, our incredible crew, and our extraordinarily talented cast, who brought five seasons to life with a truth audiences believed every step of the way. It has been a stellar creative experience — one I will always treasure.”
