Jude Law and Andrew Garfield are stepping into the sequinned shoes of Siegfried & Roy for Apple TV+’s highly anticipated limited series, Wild Things.
Adapted from the Apple Original Podcast Wild Things: Siegfried & Roy, the eight-episode drama promises to peel back the curtain on the world-famous illusionists whose white tigers and theatrical flair once defined Las Vegas. Below, everything we know about the upcoming biopic.
What is the series about?
Far from a simple biopic, the series is described as a deep dive into illusion and identity, weaving together glamour, danger, and the blurred line between performance and reality. As the official synopsis puts it: “Wild Things tells the wild ride relationship tale of two of the greatest showman-magicians in history who, along with their white tigers, are tasked with turning Sin City into a family-friendly destination. The duo push the concept of illusion versus reality to the extreme, personally and professionally, until tragedy reframes and opens a mystery surrounding their last fateful Las Vegas show.”
Who is involved?
Law will portray the ice-blonde Siegfried, while Garfield takes on the role of Roy, the slightly more enigmatic half of the magic duo.
Behind the scenes is an equally powerhouse creative team. John Hoffman, who's best known for his work on Only Murders in the Building, will serve as showrunner, director, and executive producer. And Law and Garfield aren't just starring, they’re also both on board as executive producers.
When will Wild Things air?
There's no word yet on a release date, with production set to kick off later this year. In the meantime, why not brush up on the best shows currently streaming on Apple TV+?
