According to Deadline, Dirty John and Fatal Attraction star Amanda Peet has been tapped to star opposite Golden Globe winner Jon Hamm in Apple TV+’s upcoming drama series Your Friends and Neighbors.
Further details about Peet’s character are still under wraps, but she is expected to play one of the lead roles. She will join previously announced cast member Olivia Munn (The Newsroom). In addition, Emmy nominee Craig Gillespie (I, Tonya, Pam & Tommy) has also boarded the project to direct its first two episodes.
What is Your Friends and Neighbors about?
“In Your Friends and Neighbors, Hamm stars as Coop, a recently divorced hedge fund manager who, after being fired, resorts to stealing from the wealthy residents in his tony upstate New York suburb in order to keep his family’s lifestyle afloat. These petty crimes begin to reinvigorate him until he breaks into the wrong house at the wrong time,” reads the logline.
The series hails from creator Jonathan Tropper, who will also be set as the showrunner. This serves as Tropper’s latest collaboration with Apple TV+ after previously working together on the Jason Momoa-led action epic See. It is executive produced by Hamm, Tropper, Connie Tavel, and Gillespie.
