Rose Byrne Stars in Apple TV+ Dark Comedy 'Physical' - Get a First Look!

Rose Byrne is starring in a new show!

Apple TV+ revealed the first look at the actress in the upcoming dramedy Physical at the Television Critics Association Winter 2021 Press Tour on Friday (February 19).

The new 10-episode Apple Original series from creator Annie Weisman is set to debut globally Summer 2021 on Apple TV+.

Here’s a plot summary: “Set in the idyllic but fragile beach paradise of sunny 1980s San Diego, Physical is a half-hour dark comedy following Sheila Rubin (played by Byrne), a quietly tortured, seemingly dutiful housewife supporting her smart but controversial husband’s bid for state assembly. But behind closed doors, Sheila has her own darkly funny take on life she rarely lets the world see. She’s also battling a complex set of personal demons relating to her self-image…. that is, until she finds release through the unlikeliest source: the world of aerobics. At first hooked on the exercise itself, Sheila’s real road to empowerment comes when she discovers a way to merge this newfound passion with the burgeoning technology of videotape to start a revolutionary business. The series tracks her epic journey from a stifled, overlooked enabler to a powerful, confident economic force, as Sheila transforms into someone we take for granted today (but was entirely radical at the time) — the female lifestyle guru.”

The show also stars Rory Scovel, Dierdre Friel, Della Saba, Lou Taylor Pucci, Paul Sparks and Ashley Liao.
