Apple TV posts another trailer for its upcoming ‘Widow’s Bay’ limited series

Starring and executive produced by Matthew Rhys, “Widow’s Bay” makes its global debut on Apple TV on Wednesday, April 29.

Apple TV has unveiled another teaser trailer for “Widow’s Bay,” its upcoming genre-bending seriers.

It stars by Emmy Award winner Matthew Rhys, who also serves as executive producer. It hails from creator Katie Dippold and Emmy Award-winning director and executive producer Hiro Murai. 

The new 10-episode series will make its global debut on Wednesday, April 29, 2026 with the first two episodes, followed by new episodes every Wednesday through June 17, 2026 on Apple TV, with a special two-episode release on Wednesday, May 27. 

Here’s how “Widow’s Bay” is described: In “Widow’s Bay,” something lurks beneath the surface. Mayor Tom Loftis (Rhys) is desperate to revive his struggling community. There’s no Wi-Fi, spotty cellular reception and he must contend with superstitious locals who believe their island is cursed. He wants these people to respect him. They don’t. They think he is soft and cowardly. And he is. But Loftis is determined to build a better future for his teenage son and turn the island into a tourist destination. Miraculously, he succeeds: tourists are finally coming. Unfortunately, the locals were right. After decades of calm, the old stories that seemed too ludicrous to be true start happening again. 

The ensemble cast includes, in addition to Rhys, Kate O’Flynn, Stephen Root, Kingston Rumi Southwick, Kevin Carroll, Dale Dickey, K Callan and Jeff Hiller. “Widow’s Bay” is created, showrun and executive produced by Dippold. Murai executive produces through his banner Chum Films alongside Carver Karaszewski, Claudia Shin and Rhys. Murai directs five episodes this season, in addition to directors Ti West, Sam Donovan and Andrew DeYoung.
