“The Morning Show” has been renewed for a fifth season at Apple TV+, one day before the premiere of Season 4.
Starring Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon, the drama series follows the major players at a morning news show and the network that airs it.

In a world rife with deepfakes, conspiracy theories and corporate cover-ups — who can you trust? And how can you know what’s actually real?”
Along with Aniston and Witherspoon, the cast includes Billy Crudup, Mark Duplass, Nestor Carbonell, Karen Pittman, Greta Lee, Nicole Beharie and Jon Hamm. New to Season 4 are Aaron Pierre, William Jackson Harper, Boyd Holbrook, Marion Cotillard and Jeremy Irons.
