Apple has picked up rights to the Justin Timberlake-led drama feature “Palmer” which also stars Juno Temple, June Squibb, Ryder Allen and Alisha Wainright.
Timberlake plays Eddie Palmer, a former college football phenomenon who, after a stint in prison, returns to his hometown to get his life back on track.
He faces not only lingering conflicts from his past but a much more surprising challenge as he finds himself in charge of a unique young boy abandoned by his wayward mother.
Fisher Stevens directed the movie from a script by Cheryl Guerriero with the project to now debut on Apple TV+ at a date TBD. The project marks Stevens’ first narrative feature in nearly a decade after several documentaries.
