Fall TV Preview 2025: The Morning Show
Wednesday, Sept. 17 (Apple TV+)
Two years after the UBA-NBN merger that closed out Season 3, Alex Levy is running the show along with Stella and others at the newly formed UBN.
At first, UBN’s C-suite is a feminist paradise heavily influenced by board president Celine Dumont (Marion Cotillard). But can it hold?
Alex “believes — and there’s a good reason to believe — that she, Stella and Celine are all aligned in their goals,” showrunner Charlotte Stoudt tells us. “And on some level, they are. They all want UBN to succeed.”
However, “There are a lot of private, personal things going on that are very complicated that are going to erode that allyship in a way that Alex didn’t expect,” she adds.
Meanwhile, Bradley — last seen turning herself in to the FBI — “had a lot of time to think about what she did in Season 3,” the EP previews, “and she doesn’t feel great about it.”
She’s brought back into the journalistic fold by a tip about a controversial story, on which she winds up working with Alex’s former producer, Chip. (How will Alex take that news, once she finds out? “Badly,” Stoudt says, laughing.)
Elsewhere, ousted exec Cory is trying to make a movie and getting thwarted at every step. “But what’s fun is to see Cory trying to climb the ladder again,” the EP says. Prepare for some epic monologues.
BONUS SPOILER!:
The trailer hints at several hook-ups (or potential ones) — including Alex and podcaster Brody (Boyd Holbrook), Cory and Bradley — but Stoudt says the new UBN CEO is the character who’s got the steamiest season ahead.
“We see a different side of Stella,” the show boss teases.
