After watching the trailer for Apple TV+’s Extrapolations it’s obvious that Timothée Chalamet has a legitimate grievance. (Watch his Apple TV+ “Call Me” ad on YouTube.) Apple TV+ has attracted pretty much every big-name actor yet Chalamet still hasn’t received an invitation. Just in Extrapolations alone, they’ve got Meryl Streep, Edward Norton, Diane Lane, Tobey Maguire, Forest Whitaker, and dozens more. What gives, Apple TV+?
The cast of the eight-episode limited series also includes Sienna Miller, Kit Harington, Daveed Diggs, Yara Shahidi, Matthew Rhys, Gemma Chan, David Schwimmer, Keri Russell, Adarsh Gourav, Indira Varma, and Marion Cotillard. Plus, Heather Graham, Tahar Rahim, Neska Rose, Judd Hirsch, Cherry Jones, Michael Gandolfini, Hari Nef, Eiza González, Ben Harper, Murray Bartlett, and MaameYaa Boafo star.
Extrapolations will premiere on March 17, 2023 with the release of the first three episodes. Additional episodes will arrive on Fridays leading up to the April 21st finale.
The series comes from writer, director, and executive producer Scott Z. Burns (Contagion, An Inconvenient Truth). Michael Ellenberg, Gregory Jacobs, Dorothy Fortenberry, and Media Res’ Lindsey Springer also serve as executive producers, with Michael Ellenberg’s Media Res producing.

Extrapolations is a bracing limited series that introduces a near future where the chaotic effects of climate change have become embedded into our everyday lives. Eight interwoven stories about love, work, faith, and family from across the globe will explore the intimate, life-altering choices that must be made when the planet is changing faster than the population. Every story is different, but the fight for our future is universal. Are we brave enough to become the solution to our own undoing before it’s too late?
