Apple has acquired the rights to a series featuring two big names in Hollywood, Oscar Isaac and Ana de Armas. The show, tentatively titled Bananas, drew stiff competition from prospective buyers before Apple TV+ emerged at the top.
Bananas series with Oscar Isaac and Ana de Armas to stream on Apple TV+
Bananas will star Oscar Isaac and Ana de Armas and premiere on Apple TV+ sometime in the future. Isaac and Ana de Armas will reportedly executive produce the series alongside David O. Russell (Silver Linings Playbook), who will also direct. Carolina Paiz, known for Orange is the New Black and Narcos, will reportedly serve as the show creator.
Fifth Season, the production company behind another Apple TV+ series Severance, will develop the series for the streaming platform.
This is said to be Ana de Armas' first English-language episodic project. The Cuban and Spanish actress previously portrayed significant roles in Antena 3’s Spanish series El Internado and Hispania, la leyenda. She has also worked in movies like Knock Knock, Blade Runner 2049, Knives Out, Blonde, No Time to Die, Deep Water, and Eden. She is slated to star in the upcoming John Wick spin-off From the World of John Wick: Ballerina.
Meanwhile, Isaac has an impressive small-screen resume that is almost on par with his cinematic credits. He worked opposite Jessica Chastain in HBO’s adaptation of Ingmar Bergman’s Scenes from a Marriage and portrayed a man with dissociative identity disorder in the MCU series Moon Knight.
It’s unclear what the plot of Bananas will be, though we do know that Paiz has developed the screenplay and will executive produce. Deadline cited sources to claim that the series borrowed its name from the term banana republics, a common English phrase generally used to refer to unstable and corrupt countries.
