Apple snags Oscar Isaac, Ana de Armas, and David O. Russell's Bananas

Directed by Russell, and starring Isaac and de Armas, the series is apparently titled Bananas, and that sound you just heard was us coming to the end of every single other fact we know about this project. Russell and his collaborators are apparently keeping details about the series—for instance, what it is, what it’s about, what it might look like, etc.—completely under wraps. Oh, wait, no: It’s also being written and EP’d by Orange Is The New Black and Narcos producer Carolina Paiz, so… Crime? Possibly?

Despite the big floating question marks, Deadline reports that bidding for the series was “competitive,” with Apple ultimately landing the big-name project. To be fair, it does kind of sound like an AppleTV+ show: The streaming service has carved out a name for itself by making liberal use of the names of others, and Isaac, de Armas, and even Russell are still well-known enough brands to make the three of them collaborating on a project intriguing. We’ll know more eventually, presumably, because it’s hard to imagine anyone knowing less.
