Need a new fall show to obsess over? Well, Apple TV+ is gearing up to teach us some science, but not in the way you might think. On Friday (Oct. 13), the streamer will air its new TV series titled Lessons in Chemistry. The show stars Captain Marvel’s Brie Larson and is an adaptation from the bestselling book by the same name.
Set in the 1950s, Larson plays Elizabeth Zott who aspires to become a scientist, but is pressured by society to play the expected role of a dutiful housewife. Rather then bend to societal norms, Zott accepts a job as a TV cooking show host and sets out to teach her viewers (overlooked housewives) more than just new recipes.
Other cast members for the show include Lewis Pullman, Kevin Sussman, Aja Naomi King, Stephanie Koenig and Patrick Walker.
If you’d prefer to read the book before diving into the series, you can grab a copy from Amazon, Walmart, Target and Barnes & Noble.
