Elizabeth Banks’ Apple TV+ Comedy Adds Jared Goldstein and Spencer Moss as Series Regulars

The half-hour comedy series, led by Banks, has rounded out additional roles ahead of a Los Angeles shoot later this year, according to an announcement from Deadline.

2 min readEditor-approved Apex article

Elizabeth Banks’ Apple TV+ half-hour comedy series has cast Jared Goldstein and Spencer Moss as series regulars, according to an exclusive report published Monday by Deadline. The casting updates extend a slate of performers previously announced for the project, which is led by Banks and set to begin production in Los Angeles later this year.

Deadline reports that Goldstein will join the series as a series regular. The report notes his previous screen work includes St. Denis Medical and Black Mirror. Spencer Moss will also be a series regular, with Deadline citing his credits on Doctor Odyssey and Chicago Med.

The report says Ted Danson, Katey Sagal and Rob Delaney were previously announced as part of the cast. With Goldstein and Moss now added, the announced series-regular lineup expands beyond the performers initially attached earlier in the project’s development.

Production is scheduled to take place in Los Angeles later this year, Deadline reports. The location and timing point to a near-term production window for the comedy, with casting changes typically informing scheduling, rehearsal plans, and crew staffing as filming approaches.

Apple TV+ has not been described in the Deadline report with a specific premiere date, and the story does not provide character names or plot details for the newly cast actors. As a result, the practical impact of Monday’s announcement is primarily staffing and production planning rather than story specifics.

The casting update also reflects a broader pattern in premium streaming comedy development, where series regulars are rounded out before principal photography begins. For audiences and industry stakeholders, the next set of milestones would typically include confirmation of character roles, the premiere timeframe, and any additional cast announcements as production timelines firm up.

Why It Matters

  • The addition of two series regulars can affect production logistics, including scheduling, rehearsals, and staffing as filming approaches.
  • The Los Angeles shoot later this year indicates a near-term production timeline, which can shape release planning for Apple TV+.
  • More casting confirmations help establish the project’s talent mix for viewers, even as character and plot details are not included in the initial report.
  • Casting timelines for streaming series can also influence labor planning for cast and crew as production moves into preproduction and principal photography.
