Slowly but surely, the deal with Pluribus is becoming more clear. Details of the new Vince Gilligan Apple TV+ series have been kept very hush-hush<\/a>, but we\u2019ve learned a little along the way. Per the logline, Rhea Seehorn plays \u201cthe most miserable person on Earth\u201d who \u201cmust save the world from happiness.\u201d A new teaser released on Thursday provides yet more clues.<\/p>\n

In the Pluribus clip, a frightened Carol (Seehorn) speaks on the phone with a reassuring voice who advises her to stick close to home and promises that a mysterious \u201cwe\u201d will provide her with anything that she needs. \u201cRest assured Carol, we will figure out what makes you different,\u201d says the person, who appears to be the President of the United States, addressing her personally on television. When Carol asks why she needs to be \u201cfigured out,\u201d he replies, \u201cSo we can fix it. So you can join us.\u201d<\/p>\n

\ufeff<\/p>\n

In Carol\u2019s words, \u201cWhat the f\u2014?\u201d (Ah, the classic trailer move of cutting off right before the cuss.) Previously<\/a>, Gilligan and co. revealed that Carol, a curmudgeonly romance writer, is immune to a virus that makes everyone else super happy. In the teaser, it\u2019s clear that the virus also makes everybody else part of a hive mind. \u201cE pluribus unum,\u201d or \u201cout of many one,\u201d get it? That explains Gilligan\u2019s previously revealed inspirations for the series, which includes Invasion Of The Body Snatchers and the Borg from Star Trek: The Next Generation. But lest we think we cracked the series\u2019 code, Gilligan promised <\/a>TV Insider<\/a> that the show attempts to \u201chit every [sci-fi] trope and turn it on its ear,\u201d so the story may not be so simple as one woman vs. the Borg.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cCarol does not want to be tasked with saving the world, but no one else is rising to the occasion. She goes on a quest to the other side of the world trying to save it from a crisis that in her mind is apocalyptic,\u201d Gilligan explained to the outlet. \u201cBut perhaps it\u2019s not as bad as she thinks. We leave that to the audience: Is this dystopic or utopic?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Slowly but surely, the deal with Pluribus is becoming more clear.
