Apple TV+ is staying in the news business. It has been announced that the streamer has renewed The Morning Show for a third season and with the news comes the announcement that the series is getting a new showrunner.
Charlotte Stoudt will be coming on board as the new showrunner for the series, replacing Kerry Ehrin, who developed the show and served as showrunner on the first and second seasons. Ehrin will remain as a consultant for season three. Stoudt had this to say about joining the show in the following press release from Apple TV+:
“I’m excited to be joining forces with Apple TV+ and The Morning Show. The cast, led by the phenomenal Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon, are truly to die for. Kerry, Mimi, and Michael, and the teams at Media Res, Hello Sunshine and Echo Films, have created an irresistible world that is equally delicious and provocative.”
Reese Witherspoon also tweeted about the renewal news which appears to indicate that she’s onboard for season three and I assume the same goes for Aniston. On the series, Aniston plays morning news anchor Alex Levy and Witherspoon stars as her co-anchor, Bradley Jackson. Both are exposed to a toxic workplace culture at their television network UBA in season one, which premiered on the platform in November 2019.
Season two severed a few COVID-19 delays but it eventually hit Apple TV+ this past September. In season two, UBA was forced to deal with the aftermath of the harassment allegations coming to light. The network was also faced with new problems, including the outbreak of the pandemic, and a story about the behind-the-scenes troubles and racism within the network. The series also stars Steve Carell, Billy Crudup, Mark Duplass, Nestor Carbonell, Karen Pittman, Bel Powley, Desean Terry, Janina Gavankar, Tom Irwin, and Marcia Gay Harden. Juliana Margulies, Greta Lee, Ruairi O’Connor, Hasan Minhaj, Holland Taylor, Tara Karsian, and Valeria Golino joined the series for its second season.
