‘Come See Me in the Good Light’ and Every Other Movie & TV Show Coming To Apple TV+ This Week

Apple TV+ is lining up a mix of glossy period drama, deeply personal documentary storytelling, twisty psychological thrills, and a globe-trotting action-comedy sequel, giving viewers plenty to dive into across this week and next. From the cutthroat circles of 1960s Palm Beach society to the intimate world of two poets facing mortality together, and from a sinister tutor embedded in a wealthy family to a former assassin trying to enjoy a European holiday with his kids, there’s a lot of variety on the way.

‘Palm Royale’ (2024–)

‘Palm Royale’ is a period comedy-drama series created by Abe Sylvia and inspired by Juliet McDaniel’s novel ‘Mr. & Mrs. American Pie’. Set in 1969 Palm Beach, Florida, it follows outsider Maxine Simmons as she schemes and hustles to break into the town’s ultra-exclusive high society via the elite Palm Royale country club. Kristen Wiig leads the cast as Maxine, alongside Laura Dern, Allison Janney, Ricky Martin, Josh Lucas, Kaia Gerber, Carol Burnett and more, playing the moneyed power brokers and misfits who orbit this world of wealth and status. Behind the camera, Sylvia serves as creator and executive producer, with filmmaker Tate Taylor among the directors helping shape the show’s glamorous yet sharp look at class, ambition, and reinvention.

‘Come See Me in the Good Light’ (2025)

‘Come See Me in the Good Light’ is a feature documentary directed by Ryan White that follows poets and partners Andrea Gibson and Megan Falley as they navigate life after Gibson receives a diagnosis of incurable ovarian cancer. The film traces their relationship, their shared creative life, and the way they use poetry, humor, and community to face illness while still chasing joy and meaning day to day. It is produced by Amplify Pictures and Tripod Media, with White joined by Jessica Hargrave, Tig Notaro and Stef Willen on the producing team. Singer-songwriters Sara Bareilles and Brandi Carlile are among the executive producers and also collaborate with Gibson on the original song ‘Salt Then Sour Then Sweet’ for the film. The documentary has already drawn strong attention on the festival circuit, including winning a major audience award at Sundance.

‘Malice’ (2025)

‘Malice’ is a six-episode psychological thriller series centered on Adam, a seemingly charming tutor who becomes closely involved with the wealthy Tanner family during a luxurious vacation in Greece. As a string of misfortunes and disturbing incidents begin to unfold around them, the Tanners are forced to question who Adam really is and whether his arrival in their lives is as accidental as it seems. Jack Whitehall stars as Adam, taking on a darker dramatic role than many of his previous projects, while David Duchovny and Carice van Houten play the affluent couple whose family is slowly pulled into a web of suspicion and fear. The series is written by BAFTA-winning screenwriter James Wood, known for projects such as ‘Rev’, ‘Ambassadors’, and ‘Decline & Fall’, promising a blend of character-driven drama and escalating tension.

‘The Family Plan 2’ (2025)

‘The Family Plan 2’ is an action-comedy film directed by Simon Cellan Jones and written by David Coggeshall, continuing the story that began in ‘The Family Plan’. The sequel once again follows former government operative-turned-suburban dad Dan Morgan, who has tried to leave his assassin life behind and now wants nothing more than a perfect Christmas trip to Europe with his family. Mark Wahlberg returns as Dan, with Michelle Monaghan back as his wife Jessica and Zoe Colletti and Van Crosby reprising their roles as the couple’s kids, while Kit Harington joins the cast as a mysterious figure from Dan’s past whose arrival throws their holiday into chaos. The film is produced by Apple Studios, Skydance Media and Municipal Pictures, with Wahlberg also serving as a producer. Set against festive backdrops in cities like London and other European locations, the story mixes family comedy, high-stakes action, and the ongoing question of whether Dan can ever truly outrun his old life.
