Jude Law and Andrew Garfield will play Siegfried & Roy respectively in the television series Wild Things, an Apple TV+ show based on the lackluster podcast, Wild Things: Siegfried & Roy.
According to Apple TV+, the eight-episode series “tells the wild ride relationship tale of two of the greatest showmen-magicians in history who, along with their white tigers, are tasked with turning Sin City into a family-friendly destination. The duo push the concept of illusion versus reality to the extreme, personally and professionally, until tragedy reframes and opens a mystery surrounding their last fateful Las Vegas show.”
Wild Things will be led by John Hoffman, who also co-created Only Murders in the Building, which stars Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez. The new series will see Matt Shankman (WandaVision, The Fantastic Four: First Steps) direct the pilot. The show is set to go into production this fall. There’s no news yet on when it will premiere on Apple TV+.
