The unofficial king of Apple TV+ is back. Billy Crudup, an Emmy winner for his performance on "The Morning Show," stars in the streamer's comedy series "Hello Tomorrow!", and the official trailer for the upcoming series dropped at the Association's winter press tour. Apple Television Critics on Wednesday.
Set in a "retro-futuristic world" similar to "The Jetsons," complete with robotic chore helpers and husbands commuting on jetpacks, "Hello, morning!" stars Crudup as Jack, an ambitious and savvy peddler who sells time-share vacations to the moon. Jack builds a thriving business with a group of dedicated employees played by the likes of Hank Azaria, Alison Pill, Jackie Weaver, Haneefah Wood, Dewshane Williams, and Matthew Maher. But the cracks soon start to appear even as the group begins to rake up the dough.

Covering "Fly Me to the Moon," the trailer sparks mysteries surrounding Jack's business and the true nature of timeshares, as the youngest salesman in the group grows increasingly suspicious of his boss. The trailer also promises plenty of bombastic speeches from Crudup, in a similar fashion to his turn on "The Morning Show."
“No one here is not a dreamer, not in a world like this where you can have it all. We live with miracles within reach, we have robots taking out the garbage, we fly to the stars. And that is what I want for you and your families, that is the dream that all of you deserve,” Crudup says in a moving speech to his employees in the trailer. "Soon you'll be saying, 'Wow. I love living on the moon.'”
The series was created by Amit Bhalla and Lucas Jansen, whose only major writing credit prior to the show is an episode of the Netflix series "Bloodline." The two executive producers of “Hello Tomorrow!” with Crudup, Stephen Falk, Jonathan Entwistle and Blake Griffin, Ryan Kalil and Noah Weinstein for Mortal Media.
