Justin Theroux’s new Apple TV+ series has a premiere date! The Mosquito Coast, based on the best-selling novel by his uncle Paul Theroux, will debut its first two episodes Friday, April 30, the streaming service announced Friday during the Television Critics Association winter press tour.
The series, which also stars Melissa George, Logan Polish and Gabriel Bateman, follows a radical idealist and brilliant inventor, Allie Fox (Justin), who uproots his family for Mexico when they suddenly find themselves on the run from the U.S. government.
In addition to announcing the show’s premiere date, Apple TV+ debuted the first look at the gripping series.
“We have a problem,” Justin says in the trailer. “You know the kind of problem that you think, ‘OK, first glance, that looks pretty bad? If I just sit down and think about it, I might be able to figure a way out of it’? We don’t have that kind of problem. This is going to be an adventure.”
