Apple TV+ just dropped the trailer for its much-anticipated original series, WeCrashed, which chronicles the rise and fall of co-working phenomenon WeWork. The show stars Jared Leto as the company’s founder Adam Neumann while Anne Hathaway plays his wife Rebekah. Based on the podcast WeCrashed: The Rise and Fall of WeWork, the eight-episode show will delve into how the pathbreaking brand began from a single coworking space and scaled up to a $47 billion company in less than a decade, only to plummet to bankruptcy after the Neumens were charged with a number of complaints involving harassment, misconduct and fraud.
“What separates (WeCrashed) from other things we've seen in this genre is that we watch the story through the prism of this couple. We see this cult of personality within the business story and then come home with them at night,” shared showrunners Lee Eisenberg and Drew Crevello. The minute-long trailer has already received rave reviews as fans have praised Leto’s transformation. The limited series also stars Kyle Marvin as Miguel McKelvey, the other co-founder of WeWork.
