"The Changeling" is described as a "fairytale for grown-ups" that's part horror story, part parenthood fable, and a "perilous odyssey through a New York City you didn't know existed."

The book's main character, Apollo Kagwa, is an antiquarian book dealer who is beginning to settle into his new life as a devoted father when his wife Emma begins acting strangely and eventually disappears. He meets a mysterious stranger who provides him with information about Emma's whereabouts and embarks on a quest to find her.

The series will be written and adapted by Kelly Marcel, known for "Cruella" and "Venom." Melina Matsoukas, known for "Insecure," is set to direct.

Honestly there isn't a lot on Apple TV+ that I don't like. This sounds super interesting and am super excited.

This looks excellent! Apple is starting to carve out a little horror niche with Servant, Lisey's Story, and now Changeling. I would love a ton more in this genre.

LaKeith is a great actor.

Evergreen reminder that if you haven't seen the 1980 movie Changeling, you are missing out on one of the finest horror-suspense movies ever made.

Stanfield has a small but very important role in Get Out, he's definitely got the character actor role down.
