Apple shared a first look at 'Palm Royale' today, its upcoming Palm Beach-set series that stars Kristen Wiig and a renowned ensemble cast, including Laura Dern, Allison Janney, Ricky Martin, Josh Lucas, Leslie Bibb, Amber Chardae Robinson, Mindy Cohn, Julia Duffy and Kaia Gerber. Extra special guest stars include Bruce Dern and Carol Burnett.

"Palm Royale" is a true underdog story that follows Maxine Simmons (Kristen Wiig) as she endeavors to break into Palm Beach high society. As Maxine attempts to cross that impermeable line between the haves and the have-nots, "Palm Royale" asks the same question that still baffles us today: "How much of yourself are you willing to sacrifice to get what someone else has?" Set during the powder keg year of 1969, "Palm Royale" is a testament to every outsider fighting for their chance to truly belong.

Loosely based on the novel "Mr. and Mrs. American Pie" by Juliet McDaniel and produced for Apple TV+ by Apple Studios, "Palm Royale'' is written, executive produced and showrun by Abe Sylvia for Aunt Sylvia's Moving Picture Company, executive produced by Laura Dern and Jayme Lemons for Jaywalker Pictures, Kristen Wiig, Katie O'Connell Marsh, Tate Taylor and John Norris for Wyolah Films, Sharr White, Sheri Holman and Boat Rocker. The series is directed by Taylor, Sylvia, Claire Scanlon and Stephanie Laing.

"Palm Royale'' makes its global debut on Apple TV+, premiering the first three episodes on March 20, 2024 followed by new episodes every Wednesday through May 8.
