Upcoming Apple TV+ show 'Manhunt' adds 7 cast members including Patton Oswalt
What you need to know
- Apple TV+ has reportedly signed seven new cast members to the upcoming show Manhunt.
- Patton Oswalt is just one of the names joining the show.
- "Part historical fiction, part conspiracy thriller, "Manhunt" will take audiences into the aftermath of the first American presidential assassination."
Apple TV+ has reportedly added no fewer than seven new cast members to the upcoming Lincoln assassination show Manhunt. The new show already has Tobias Menzies, Lovie Simone, and Matt Walsh signed on.
The upcoming Apple TV+ show will include some big names including Patton Oswalt, according to a Deadline report. The show is based on James Swanson's book Manhunt: The 12-Day Chase for Lincoln's Killer which is obviously where its name comes from.
Apple TV+ describes the show as "part historical fiction, part conspiracy thriller" which is more than enough to whet the appetite. The streamer outlined what we can expect from Manhunt in its announcement press release earlier this year.
While there is no official date available for when we can expect to be able to watch the next big Apple TV+ thing, we do know that a subscription will be required. Apple TV+ is also available as part of the Apple One subscription bundle, too.
