"Lisa Kudrow is traveling through time.
The
Friends Emmy winner will head the cast for Apple TV+’s
Time Bandits,
Taika Waititi’s series adaptation of the 1981 Terry Gilliam film. The show has
also cast seven other actors: Kal-El Tuck, Charlyne Yi (
Always Be My Maybe),
Tadhg Murphy (
Conversations With Friends), Roger Jean Nsengiyumva (
Tomb
Raider), Rune Temte (
Captain Marvel), Kiera Thompson and Rachel House
(Waititi’s
Thor: Ragnarok and
Hunt for the Wilderpeople).
Time Bandits, which Apple began developing in 2019, is described as “a
comedic journey through time and space with a ragtag group of thieves and their
newest recruit: an 11-year-old history nerd” named Kevin (Tuck). Waititi is a
co-writer on the series and will direct the first two episodes."
I am intrigued! I hope this turns up on Paramount+ or elsewhere outside Apple’s
walled garden.
