AppleTV+ releases release date and first photos of Palm Royale

We get the first look at Palm Royale (formerly Mrs. American Pie), Kristen Wiig's Palm Beach comedy series, premiering March 20 on Apple TV+. Wiig (The Spoils of Babylon) leads the stellar cast, including Laura Dern (Big Little Lies), Allison Janney (Mom), Ricky Martin (American Crime Story), Josh Lucas (Yellowstone), Leslie Bibb (Popular), Amber Chardae Robinson, Mindy Cohn, Julia Duffy and Kaia Gerber fall. Bruce Dern and Carol Burnett will guest star.

The first three episodes will be released on March 20, followed by new episodes every Wednesday through May 8.



Loosely based on Juliet McDaniel’s novel Mr. and Mrs. American Pie and produced by Apple Studios, Palm Royale is a true underdog story that follows Maxine Simmons (Wiig) as she endeavors to break into Palm Beach high society. As Maxine attempts to cross that impermeable line between the haves and the have-nots, Palm Royale asks the same question that still baffles us today: “How much of yourself are you willing to sacrifice to get what someone else has?” Set during the powder keg year of 1969, Palm Royale is a testament to every outsider fighting for their chance to truly belong.

Palm Royale is written, executive produced and showrun by Abe Sylvia for Aunt Sylvia’s Moving Picture Company, executive produced by Laura Dern and Jayme Lemons for Jaywalker Pictures, Kristen Wiig, Katie O’Connell Marsh, Tate Taylor and John Norris for Wyolah Films, Sharr White, and Sheri Holman and Boat Rocker. The series is directed by Taylor, Sylvia, Claire Scanlon, and Stephanie Laing.
