Apple lands "Five Days At Memorial," from Academy Award winner John Ridley and Emmy Award winner Carlton Cuse

New limited series based on the acclaimed nonfiction book and National Books Critics Circle Award winner to debut globally on Apple TV+

Apple TV+ today announced "Five Days At Memorial," a new limited series from Academy Award winner John Ridley ("12 Years a Slave," "American Crime," "Guerrilla") and Emmy Award winner Carlton Cuse ("Locke & Key," "Jack Ryan," "Lost"). Ridley and Cuse will both serve as showrunners, writers and executive producers on the project. Ridley will direct the limited series, produced by ABC Signature.

Based on the novel by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Sheri Fink, "Five Days At Memorial" chronicles the first five days in a New Orleans hospital after Hurricane Katrina made landfall. When the floodwaters rose, the power failed and the heat climbed, exhausted caregivers were forced to make life-and-death decisions that haunted them for years to come. Sheri Fink will executive produce alongside Ridley and Cuse.

The new limited series will join a growing list of anticipated series from best-selling books and award-winning storytellers that will soon debut on Apple TV+, including "Mosquito Coast," starring Justin Theroux; "Lisey's Story," written and executive produced by Stephen King and starring Academy Award winner Julianne Moore; and sweeping global series "Shantaram" and "Pachinko."

Apple TV+ is available on the Apple TV app on iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, iPod touch, Mac, select Samsung and LG smart TVs, Amazon Fire TV and Roku devices, as well as at tv.apple.com, for $4.99 per month with a seven-day free trial.
