Los Angeles, May 29: “Hedy Lamarr”, the eight-episode limited series starring Gal Gadot, has moved to Apple TV Plus from Showtime with a straight-to-series order.
The project, based on the life of Hollywood actor and inventor Hedy Lamarr, was in development at Showtime since August last year but never received a series order, reported Deadline.
The series comes from “The Affair” co-creator Sarah Treem.
Gadot and her husband and producing partner Jaron Varsano will executive produce under their Pilot Wave banner.
