The comedy series starring Rose Byrne (Mrs. America) and Seth Rogen (Pam & Tommy) will have ten episodes. Created, directed and written by Nick Stoller and Francesca Delbanco, the series will make its worldwide debut with the first three episodes on Wednesday, May 24. New episodes will follow every Wednesday.
Platonic follows a pair of former best friends (Rogen and Byrne) as they approach middle age and reunite after a long breakup. The duo's friendship becomes all-consuming and destabilizes their lives. The cast also includes Luke Macfarlane (Killjoys), Tre Hale (NCIS: Los Angeles), Carla Gallo (Bones) and Andrew Lopez (series debut).
Platonic is produced by Sony Pictures Television, where Stoller and Stoller's Global Solutions have an overall deal. Byrne, Rogen, Stoller, Delbanco and Conor Welch run the production.
The series is the latest collaboration between Apple TV+ and Byrne, who also stars in the Apple Original series Physical, the third season of which will be released later this year. Rogen also stars in an as-yet-untitled comedy series for Apple TV+ that he will co-write, direct and produce with Evan Goldberg.
