The Crowded Room comes from Akiva Goldsman and has been described as a \u201cseasonal anthology\u201d telling inspirational stories about those who have learned to live with mental illness. It will be based partly on Goldsman\u2019s own life, and also inspired by The Minds of Billy Milligan, a biography written by Daniel Keyes\u2019 biography. The first starts filming in March and will contain 10 episodes.<\/p>\n
Read on for everything you need to know about The Crowded Room on Apple TV+<\/a>.<\/p>\n There\u2019s no release date for The Crowded Room as of yet, but the series is expected to start shooting in March, so is unlikely to debut until the end of 2022 at the earliest. We\u2019ll keep this page updated with any developments.<\/p>\n The full season of 10 episodes will stream on Apple TV+. Sign up to Apple TV+ now<\/a>.<\/p>\n The Crowded Room already has a stacked cast, which includes Tom Holland (Spider-Man: No Way Home, Uncharted<\/a>) as Danny Sullivan, Amanda Seyfried (Mamma Mia<\/a>, Les Mis\u00e9rables) as Rya, a clinical psychologist, Emmy Rossum (Shameless) as Candy, Danny\u2019s mother, Emma Laird (Mayor of Kingstown<\/a>) as Danny\u2019s girlfriend, Sasha Lane (Loki<\/a>) and Christopher Abbott (The Sinner<\/a>).<\/p>\n A lot has made of the fact that Rossum will be playing Holland\u2019s mother despite him being only 10 years her junior, but it has been suggested that the Shameless actress might only appear in flashbacks, explaining the small age gap between the two stars.<\/p> Behind the camera, the series is to be executive produced and written by Akiva Goldsman, the Oscar winning screenwriter behind A Beautiful Mind. Holland will also executive produce, as will the series\u2019 director, Korn\u00e9l Mundrucz\u00f3 (Pieces of a Woman).<\/p>\n The Crowded Room is a thriller about Danny Sullivan (Tom Holland), a young man with multiple personalities. The character is said to be loosely based on Billy Milligan, the first person acquitted of a crime because they suffered from dissociative identity disorder. Milligan\u2019s story was detailed in the award-winning biography The Minds of Billy Milligan, by Daniel Keyes.<\/p>\n The series is said to be a \u201cseasonal anthology\u201d about inspirational stories of people who have struggled and learned to live with mental illness, so don\u2019t expect season 2 to follow the same story or be focused on Holland\u2019s Danny Sullivan.<\/p>\n The first season is set to be made up of 10 episodes.<\/p>\n The series doesn\u2019t seem to be a straight adaptation of a true story, but instead is based on two real life tales \u2013 one being creator Akiva Goldsman\u2019s own life, the other The Minds of Billy Milligan, an award winning biography by Daniel Keyes.<\/p>\n There\u2019s no trailer yet for The Crowded Room, but we\u2019ll keep this page updated.<\/p>\n Looking for something else to watch?
