EXCLUSIVE: Apple is expanding the ensemble cast of its upcoming series Your Friends and Neighbors with Isabel Gravitt (The Watcher, Little Fires Everywhere) and Donovan Colan (Theater Camp, Spirit Halloween, upcoming The Dogs).
Details for their characters are being kept under wraps, though Deadline understands they will be playing siblings.
Jon Hamm is set to lead the series, based on an original idea by acclaimed screenwriter, producer and novelist Jonathan Tropper. Your Friends and Neighbors, stars Hamm 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.
Gravitt and Colan join a cast that also includes Aimee Carrero, Olivia Munn, Amanda Peet, Lena Hall, Hoon Lee and Mark Tallman.
Craig Gillespie will direct the first two episodes, and Greg Yaitanes and Stephanie Laing are set to direct three episodes each. Hamm will executive produce alongside Connie Tavel, and Tropper will serve as showrunner and executive producer under his overall deal with Apple TV+. Your Friends and Neighbors is the latest project under Tropper’s overall deal with Apple through his shingle Tropper Ink. He previously served as showrunner and executive producer of global hit Apple Original series See, starring Jason Momoa.
Prior to Your Friends and Neighbors, Gravitt starred opposite Naomi Watts and Bobby Cannavale on Ryan Murphy’s limited series The Watcher. She also recurred on ABC’s American Housewife and Hulu’s Little Fires Everywhere. She will be seen starring in the feature film Flycatcher, which will premiere later this year.
Last year, Colan starred in Theater Camp, which won the Sundance 2023 Special Jury Award: Ensemble. He made his acting debut in Zoe, alongside Ewan McGregor and Rashida Jones.
Gravitt is repped by Buchwald and Randy James Management. Colan is repped by Nancy Carson of Carson-Adler Agency.
