Apple is nearing a series order on a limited series starring two former SNL alum.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Cecily Strong are starring in a series based on New York Magazine article The Nanny Squatter for the streamer.
The untitled series comes from If I Had Legs I’d Kick You director Mary Bronstein and Apple Studios.
The series centers on a couple whose lives are upended after welcoming a seemingly ideal caregiver into their home, only to find boundaries blurred and control slipping as the arrangement spirals into a tense, unsettling power struggle.
The article, which was published in October, has the tagline: A couple thought they’d found Mary Poppins. Until she refused to leave.
