Apple TV+ has given a green light to WeCrashed, a new limited-run series based on the Podcast WeCrashed: The Rise and Fall of WeWork, starring Jared Leto and Anne Hathaway, who will both also serve as executive producers.
WeCrashed 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.
Previously in development at Apple and set to be produced by Apple Studios, WeCrashed is created by Lee Eisenberg (Little America, Good Boys) and Drew Crevello (The Long Dark), and will be directed by John Requa and Glenn Ficarra (This is Us, Crazy Stupid Love).
WeCrashed joins a number of upcoming limited series on Apple TV+ including The Shrink Next Door, based on the No. 1 new podcast of 2019 by Wondery and Bloomberg Media, and starring Will Ferrell, Paul Rudd and Kathryn Hahn; Hedy Lamarr, starring and executive produced by Gal Gadot, and written and executive produced by Golden Globe Award winner Sarah Treem; Five Days At Memorial, a new limited series from Academy Award winner John Ridley; and, Lisey’s Story, written and executive produced by celebrated author Stephen King, and starring Academy Award winner Julianne Moore.
