For Meryl Streep, 'Extrapolations' will not be vastly different from her latest hit, Adam McKay's 'Don't Look Up'. The apocalyptic black comedy was celebrated as a biting satire that tackled humanity's lackadaisical response to climate change.

The incredible star cast of 'Extrapolations' includes Tobey Maguire, Diane Lane, Marion Cotillard, Forest Whitaker, Keri Russell, Eiza González, Michael Gandolfini, David Schwimmer, Gemma Chan, Edward Norton, and Indira Varma.
'Extrapolations' is created by Scott Z Burns', who has also written the script. He is known as the producer of 'An Inconvenient Truth' and writer of 'Contagion' and 'Side Effects'. Burns is known for his previous work that often deals with similar issues.
The new series will be Apple TV+'s latest addition to its already impressive binge catalog. 'Extrapolations' might be a must-watch for all environmentalists and lovers of good shows. The series comes heavy on expectations, with a star cast that boasts countless hits and classics.
