Nancy Meyers Unaware of Apple TV+ 'Holiday' Series Plans

Apple TV+ is developing a limited series reboot of Nancy Meyers' 2006 holiday romantic comedy The Holiday, which originally starred Cameron Diaz and Kate Winslet. The series will reimagine the film's premise, focusing on two single women from the US and UK who swap homes and find unexpected romance, but will feature new characters and a new cast. Nancy Meyers, who wrote, produced, and directed the original film, was reportedly unaware of the project until she saw the news on Instagram and has no involvement in the new series. Krissie Ducker is the series' writer and executive producer, with Rob Delaney serving as a consultant, and production is being handled by Left Bank Pictures. Casting is underway for the lead roles, with offers sent out on both sides of the Atlantic. The project has sparked mixed reactions from fans, but Meyers' surprise highlights a lack of communication with the original creator regarding the reboot.
