July 31, 2019

The Israeli espionage thriller “False Flag” is getting an American remake for the new Apple TV+ streaming service. The first season of the original series is currently available in Hebrew on Hulu. Season two premiered in Israel last fall.

“False Flag” is not the only Israeli series coming to Apple TV+. “Nevelot” is being remade as “Bastards,” a drama starring Richard Gere. It’s about a pair of best friends and Vietnam vets who learn that the woman they both loved has been killed in a car accident.

Other Apple TV+ series in development feature the talents of MOTs including JJ Abrams, Lizzy Caplan, Hailee Steinfeld, Mimi Leder, with Daveed Diggs and Josh Gad in the voice cast of the animated series “Central Park.”

The service is expected to launch later this year.
