Jared Leto and Anne Hathaway are heading to Apple TV+ this March for WeCrashed, and a new trailer gives us a closer look at the drama charting the rise and fall of WeWork.

Inspired by actual events — and the love story at the center of it all – the series is based on the hit Wondery podcast WeCrashed: The Rise and Fall of WeWork. It follows WeWork as it grows from a single coworking space into a global brand worth $47 billion in under a decade. Then, in less than a year, its value plummeted. What happened?

Created by Lee Eisenberg and Drew Crevello, who serve as co-writers, it is directed by John Requa and Glenn Ficarra (This is Us, Crazy, Stupid, Love), who also exec-produce alongside Charlie Gogolak, Hathaway, Leto and Natalie Sandy.

The cast also includes Kyle Marvin, alongside America Ferrera and O-T Fagbenle. You can see them all in action on 18th March, when the first three episodes premiere on Apple TV+, with new episodes then arriving weekly.

Until then, here’s the trailer:

The limited series is directed by John Requa and Glenn Ficarra and created by Lee Eisenberg (Little America) and Drew Crevello (The Long Dark). Previously in development at Apple and set to be produced by Apple Studios, the series is based on the hit podcast WeCrashed: The Rise and Fall of WeWork.

It will follow the greed-filled rise and inevitable fall of WeWork, one of the world’s most valuable startups, and “the narcissists whose chaotic love made it all possible”.

Emma Ludbrook will executive produce alongside Leto through their Paradox production company. Hathaway will serve as an executive producer too.

The series joins an expanding line-up of Apple Originals, including the recently announced Lessons in Chemistry, starring and executive produced by Brie Larson, Kitbag, the latest film from esteemed director Ridley Scott and starring Academy Award winner Joaquin Phoenix, Emancipation, from director Antoine Fuqua, and starring and produced by Will Smith, Killers of the Flower Moon, directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro, The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey, a six-episode series starring and executive produced by Samuel L Jackson, Snow Blind, a film with Jake Gyllenhaal attached to star, Swan Song, a genre-bending film starring Mahershala Ali and Naomie Harris, and Masters of the Air, a new limited drama series from Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks.
