Apple TV+ Orders Bilingual Thriller ‘Now and Then’

Apple TV+ has greenlit “Now and Then,” a new Spanish and English language series from creators Ramón Campos, Teresa Fernández-Valdés and Gema R. Neira — the same team behind “Velvet”, “Cable Girls” and “Grand Hotel.” Set in Miami with an all-Hispanic cast and shot in Spanish and English, “Now and Then” is described as a multi-layered thriller that explores the differences between youthful aspirations and the reality of adulthood, when the lives of a group of college best friends are forever changed after a celebratory weekend ends up with one of them dead. Now, 20 years later, the remaining five are reluctantly reunited by a threat that puts their seemingly perfect worlds at risk.

Campos and Fernández-Valdés will serve as showrunners, and the series will be written by Neira and Campos with their team. Bambú Producciones will produce the series for Apple TV+.
