Apple TV+ is set to premiere the highly anticipated sci-fi drama "Pluribus" on November 7, created by Vince Gilligan, the mastermind behind "Breaking Bad" and "Better Call Saul." The show stars Rhea Seehorn as the lead, a character described as the "most miserable person on Earth" tasked with saving the world from happiness. The series is set in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and has a confirmed second season.

"Pluribus" marks a reunion between Gilligan and two-time Emmy nominee Rhea Seehorn, who played Kim Wexler opposite Bob Odenkirk on "Better Call Saul." Seehorn portrays Carol, a character who is trying very hard to be good but is also a bit of a damaged hero. The show is described as a genre-bending original that explores human nature in unexpected ways.

The first two episodes of "Pluribus" will be released on Apple TV+ on November 7, with each new episode dropping every Friday until December 26. The streaming service has already ordered two seasons of the show, with the second season confirmed to be in the works.

The cast of "Pluribus" also includes Karolina Wydra, Carlos-Manuel Vesga, Miriam Shor, and Samba Schutte. The series is produced by Sony Pictures Television and executive produced by Emmy Award-winning Gilligan alongside Gordon Smith, Alison Tatlock, Diane Mercer, Allyce Ozarski, and Jeff Frost. Jenn Carroll and Trina Siopy serve as co-executive producers.

Apple TV+ has been known for its high-quality content and is home to fan favorite shows like "Ted Lasso," "Severance," "The Morning Show," "Silo," and "Shrinking." The streaming service is available for $9.99 per month and offers a seven-day free trial for new subscribers.
