#Physical: Apple TV+ Previews Dark Comedy Series Starring Rose Byrne (Watch)

Let’s get Physical with Rose Byrne! Apple TV+ has released a preview for the dark comedy series set in the 1980s. Rory Scovel, Dierdre Friel, Della Saba, Lou Taylor Pucci, Paul Sparks, and Ashley Liao also star in the series.

Apple TV+ revealed more about the new TV show in a press release.

“Today Apple TV+ debuted the trailer for Physical, the highly anticipated 10-episode dramedy starring Rose Byrne and created by Annie Weisman that will make its global premiere on Friday, June 18, 2021, exclusively on Apple TV+. Physical will premiere with the first three episodes, followed by one new episode weekly, every Friday.

Set in the idyllic but fragile beach paradise of sunny 1980s San Diego, Physical is a half-hour dark comedy following Sheila Rubin (Byrne), a quietly tortured, seemingly dutiful housewife supporting her smart but controversial husband’s bid for state assembly. But behind closed doors, Sheila has her own darkly funny take on life she rarely lets the world see. She’s also battling a complex set of personal demons relating to her self-image…. that is, until she finds release through the unlikeliest source: the world of aerobics.

At first hooked on the exercise itself, Sheila’s real road to empowerment comes when she discovers a way to merge this newfound passion with the burgeoning technology of videotape to start a revolutionary business. The series tracks her epic journey from a stifled, overlooked enabler to a powerful, confident economic force, as Sheila transforms into someone we take for granted today (but was entirely radical at the time) — the female lifestyle guru.”
