Rose Byrne Plays '80s Aerobics Instructor in Apple TV+ Series 'Physical' - Watch the Trailer!

Rose Byrne is taking us back to the ’80s!

Apple TV+ released the first teaser trailer for their upcoming dark comedy Physical, starring the 41-year-old actress as an aerobics instructor.

Here’s the show’s plot summary: “Set in the idyllic but fragile beach paradise of sunny 1980s San Diego, Physical is a half-hour dark comedy following Sheila Rubin (played by 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.”

The show also stars Rory Scovel, Dierdre Friel, Della Saba, Lou Taylor Pucci, Paul Sparks and Ashley Liao.

Rose also has another Apple TV+ project in the works, where she will be reuniting with one of her former co-stars.

Physical premieres on Apple TV+ on June 18!

Justin Timberlake to Play 'Gong Show' Host Chuck Barris in Apple TV+ Series!

Justin Timberlake is getting into acting again!

The 40-year-old Man of the Woods entertainer is in talks to star as the Gong Show host Chuck Barris in an upcoming untitled AppleTV+ series, Deadline reported Friday (April 9).

The news of this casting follows Justin‘s previous turn on the streamer in the Fisher Stevens-directed film Palmer, which was released in January.

In the comedy series, Justin would play Gong Show host Chuck Barris based on Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, a 1984 memoir in which the host made wild claims that being the host and creator of shows like The Dating Game and The Newlywed Game was a cover-up for his real job: a CIA assassin who eliminated enemies of the state in the 1960s and 1970s.

The book was later turned into a 2002 film that George Clooney directed with Sam Rockwell playing Chuck Barris.

The show will be co-produced between Miramax, which released the 2002 film, and Paramount Television Studios.
