Jude Law, Andrew Garfield To Play Siegfried & Roy in New Apple Series

Jude Law and Andrew Garfield are about to star as two of the most quintessentially ’90s icons in a new limited series for AppleTV+. The two Brits are set to play Siegfried FIschbacher and Roy Horn, respectively — better known as the magical Las Vegas duo Siegfried & Roy. The limited series (currently set up for an eight-episode run) is based on the Apple Original Podcast, Wild Things: Siegfried & Roy, and has been in development since 2022. Production is slated to begin in the fall of 2025.

According to reporting from Variety, John Hoffman (who co-created Only Murders in the Building alongside its co-lead Steve Martin) developed the series and will serve as executive producer, showrunner, and director. Law and Garfield will executive produce in addition to starring. Elsewhere in the production side of things, Matt Shakman is attached to executive produce and direct the first episode, while Brian Grazer, Kristen Zolner, Natalie Berkus, Tony Leondis, and Kathy Ciric will executive produce. Will Malnati, who conceived of the podcast on which the series was based, will executive produce the project alongside Steven Leckart, who wrote, narrated, and executive produced the podcast for At Will Media.
