After a critically acclaimed third season, and a writer’s strike interrupting pre-production, “The Morning Show” returns to Apple TV+ to dive even deeper into the cutthroat world of broadcast news.
The 10-episode fourth season will premiere on September 15. New episodes will be released weekly until November 19.
This season starts with a time jump, according to Apple, with events taking place two years after the events of season three.
Both Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon return to reprise their roles as Alex Levy and Bradley Jackson. The ensemble cast is rounded out by Billy Crudup, Karen Pittman, Nicole Beharie, Nestor Carbonell, Mark Duplass, Greta Lee, Marion Cotillard, Jeremy Irons, Aaron Pierre, William Jackson Harper, Boyd Holbrook, and returning fan-favorite Jon Hamm.
Season three earned Apple TV+ 16 Emmy nominations and an Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series win for Crudup for his performance of Cory Ellison. Crudup also won a Critics Choice Award for his season three portrayal.
Apple renewed the series for a fourth season in May 2023 — just before the third-season premiered. The fourth season has been in production since at least early 2024.
The Morning Show is inspired by the book “Top of the Morning: Inside the Cutthroat World of Morning TV” by Brian Stelter. The program explores the personalities and customs of a network’s morning news broadcast.
