Launched on Apple TV + last November, The Morning Show took audiences by surprise with its at times tough depiction of the lives and unique challenges of morning show hosts, the men and women who help millions of Americans wake up each day and get their day going.
Jennifer Aniston and Billy Crudup, two of the show's stars and nominees for SAG Awards for their performances, recently talked about the show along with co-star and executive producer Reese Witherspoon, executive producer Michael Ellenberg, and EP/director Mimi Leder.
“It was important to get inside the head of a gentle, charismatic narcissist,” Aniston said, discussing her character. “[It was important] to be at the hand of abuse of power and not actually even know it. We wanted that perspective of that character to be explored.”
The conversation quickly turned to the show’s future. “It was a climactic finale,” Ellenberg said early in the panel. “Season 2 certainly picks up where we ended… and you’ll have to watch it to see.”
“We’re just getting started,” Witherspoon said. “We’re trying to figure out the new dynamics [post-#MeToo] — what is the new normal?”
No word yet on Steve Carall’s future involvement. His contract only covered one season, but given fan reaction to his performance, it wouldn’t be out of the question to see him appear in future episodes.
