DESCRIPTION:
(from Apple's press release, April 2022) Apple TV+ today announced a series order for "The White Darkness," a new limited series starring Tom Hiddleston ("The Essex Serpent," "Loki"), who will also serve as executive producer, and based on David Grann's non-fiction work of the same name. The new co-production from Apple Studios and UCP is developed by Soo Hugh ("Pachinko," "The Terror"), who will also co-showrun and serve as executive producer. Mark Heyman ("Black Swan, "Strange Angel"), will co-showrun and executive produce on the series alongside Hugh, and Theresa Kang-Lowe ("Pachinko") will executive produce through her company Blue Marble Pictures which is currently in an overall deal with Apple TV+. "The White Darkness" is inspired by the true life account of Henry Worsley (played by Hiddleston), a devoted husband and father, a former soldier, a man of deep honor and sacrifice, but also a man deeply obsessed with adventure, manifesting in an epic journey crossing Antarctica on foot. Starring Tom Hiddleston as Worsley, this is a spellbinding story of courage, love, family and the extremes of human capacity. |
