Zooey Deschanel Returns To Small Screen In 'Physical' on Apple TV+

Zooey Deschanel is coming back to television with a role in Apple TV+’s Physical!

The -year-old actress will return to the small screen opposite Rose Byrne in the series as a character named Kelly.

Kelly is described as “a network sitcom star who decides to enter the burgeoning Fitness Industry.”

Physical is set in 1980s San Diego, and centers on Sheila Rubin (Byrne), a quietly tortured, seemingly dutiful housewife supporting her smart but controversial husband’s bid for state assembly.

Season two saw Sheila successfully launched her first fitness video only to encounter some new and bigger obstacles on her path.

While no premiere date has been set, Physical just recently received the season three renewal in August.

Rose Byrne's Apple TV+ Series 'Physical' Gets Renewed for a Third Season!

Rose Byrne is going to be back on the small screen with another season of her Apple TV+ series Physical!

The streaming service has announced that the half-hour dramedy has been renewed for a third season, hot on the heels of the season two finale.

Set in the idyllic but fragile beach paradise of sunny 1980s San Diego, Physical is a half-hour dark comedy following Sheila Rubin (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’s creator and showrunner, Annie Weisman, said, “I am thrilled for the opportunity to continue telling Sheila’s story in creative collaboration with Rose Byrne and the rest of our incredible cast, writers and crew. Rose’s breathtaking, hilarious and brave performance is the north star on our show’s journey of personal empowerment and transformation in 80’s Southern California in all its synth-pop, sun-baked, spandex-clad glory. The feedback we’ve received from audiences who continue to discover and feel seen by Physical is the most deeply gratifying experience of my career and I’m so grateful to our team at Apple and Tomorrow Studios for making this dream a reality.”

Congrats!
