Tatiana Maslany goes down a dangerous rabbit hole as Paula in the upcoming new Apple dark comedy thriller Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed, premiering May 20. The first teaser trailer, titled “The Spiral,” was released and can be watched above.
From creator and showrunner David J. Rosen, the series follows Paula, as she finds herself at the crossroads of blackmail, murder and youth soccer. Convinced she witnessed a crime – while simultaneously struggling through a custody battle and an identity crisis – Paula begins her own investigation, one that could unravel a greater conspiracy while also holding the keys to rebuilding her family and sense of self.
“Can I be uncomfortably honest with you? I just didn’t think I’d be here, you know? Like, I’m supposed to have it all …figured out,” Paula says in a voiceover of the teaser, which is chaotic in the best way possible.
The cast also includes Jake Johnson as Paula’s ex-husband Karl; Jessy Hodges as Mallory, Karl’s new wife, and a sharp lawyer; Jon Michael Hill as Detective Baxter; Kiarra Hamagami Goldberg as Geri, a fact-checker at a prestigious New York publication; Charlie Hall as Rudy, a fellow fact-checker and Geri’s work buddy; Nola Wallace as Hazel, Paula and Karl’s daughter; and Dolly De Leon as Detective Sofia Gonzalez. Details regarding Flynn and Bartlett’s roles are under wraps.
