Apples Never Fall: Trailer for new drama series filmed on the Gold Coast revealed

The eagerly awaited trailer for the Gold Coast-filmed Apples Never Fall, featuring an all-star cast including Annette Bening and Sam Neill, has been released.

The eagerly awaited trailer for Apples Never Fall starring Annette Bening and Sam Neill, has been unveiled this week.

The series, which was filmed on the Gold Coast, is set to drop all seven episodes simultaneously on BINGE on March 14, featuring a talented cast including Jake Lacy, Alison Brie, Conor Merrigan-Turner, and Essie Randles.

Adapted from the No. 1 New York Times best-selling novel by Australian author Liane Moriarty, Apples Never Fall delves into the life of the Delaney family, whose seemingly ideal life is shattered by the sudden disappearance of Joy, the family matriarch.

The trailer teases a narrative of familial bliss interrupted by mystery and suspense, as Joy’s disappearance unravels the fabric of the Delaney family, exposing hidden truths and igniting a search for answers amid accusations and intrigue.

Sam Neill and Annette Bening star in Apples Never Fall.

This series joins the ranks of Moriarty’s novels that have made the leap to television, following the success of Big Little Lies and Nine Perfect Strangers.

Apples Never Fall not only brings a gripping story to the screen but also underscores the economic impact of high-profile productions in Australia.

Announced in February 2023, the series’ production on the Gold Coast was heralded as a significant boost to the local economy.

“With the support of my government’s Production Attraction Strategy through Screen Queensland, this high-profile production will soon be filming on the Gold Coast, contributing an estimated $29.5 million to the state’s economy and creating nearly 200 jobs for local cast and crew, as well as 1000 opportunities for extras,” Federal Arts Minister Tony Burke said.

Film crews took over this motel on Frank St, Labrador, for TV series Apples Never Fall on March 31, 2023.

However, the production phase of the series faced significant challenges due to the 2023 SAG-AFTRA actors strike which lasted from July 14 to November 9.

Apples Never Fall was one of the two major productions in Queensland which were forced to shut down during the strike.

All seven episodes of Apples Never Fall will be available on Binge from Thursday, March 14 at 8:30pm.
