The Choir

Ruth Jones and James Corden have come together again to write and star in a new 8-episode comedy drama Apple TV series called 'The Choir', set to premiere in 2027.

Brother and sister Ben (Corden) and Lisa (Jones) haven’t seen each other for several years. Ben has been living abroad, while Lisa has carried on in their small English town, where nothing ever happens.

But when events take a sorry turn, Ben is forced to return to a life he never wanted, a town he never liked and a family from which he’s estranged. Can the unlikely healing of a rift with his big sister come in the form of a struggling local choir and the ensemble who sing their hearts out each week?

The ensemble cast also includes BAFTA Award winner Tom Davis (Wonka), Rosie Sheehy (The Custom of the Country), Actor Award nominee Susan Brown (Mr Bates vs The Post Office), BAFTA Award winner Jason Watkins (Dirty Business), Actor Award nominee David Harewood (Homeland).

Plus Alexandria Riley (Silo), Sylvestra Le Touzel (Intelligence), Tom Edden (Mr. Turner), Gary Lamont (Rivals), Emily Lloyd-Saini (Wicker), Stephen Leask (Mother’s Pride), Luiis Rouf (Sunlight), Jo Foster (Into The Woods, Bridge Theatre), Evie Jones (Truckload) and Farrah Abbassy.

The series also features Emmy Award winner Hannah Waddingham (Ted Lasso), BAFTA Award winner James McAvoy (Split) and Academy Award winner Jim Broadbent (Iris) in guest roles.
