Apple Original Films’ action-buddy-comedy, “Mayday,” starring Ryan Reynolds and Kenneth Branagh, debuts today on Apple TV.
Here’s how “Mayday” is described: When hot shot U.S. Navy pilot Lieutenant Troy “Assassin” Kelly (Reynolds) is sent on a top-secret mission into Russian territory at the height of the Cold War, the operation implodes, leaving him stranded behind enemy lines. Discovered by Nikolai Ustinov (Branagh), a gruff ex-KGB agent with a penchant for American culture, Troy thinks he’s toast – but could an unlikely alliance between the two lead to Troy’s rescue, and a bond neither saw coming?
An Apple Original Film hailing from Skydance Media, the film is written, directed and produced by John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein. David Ellison, Dana Goldberg and Don Granger will produce for Skydance, alongside Maximum Effort’s Ashley Fox and Johnny Pariseau. Reynolds and George Dewey will also produce through Maximum Effort, along with John G. Scotti, serve as executive producers.
