Apple TV+ has dropped the first look at its upcoming limited series The Savant, a psychological thriller led by Academy Award–winning actress Jessica Chastain. The eight-part series will premiere globally on Friday, September 26, 2025, with the first two episodes available immediately. New episodes will follow weekly, wrapping up on November 7, 2025.
In the series, Chastain portrays a covert investigator who goes by the alias “The Savant.” Her mission is to embed herself inside dangerous online hate networks, tracking extremists before they can carry out violent plots. The drama promises an intense mix of suspense and social relevance as it explores the hidden dangers of digital radicalization.
The ensemble cast includes Nnamdi Asomugha, Cole Doman, Jordana Spiro, Trinity Lee Shirley, and Toussaint Francois Battiste, with Pablo Schreiber making a guest appearance.
The Savant comes from FIFTH SEASON and boasts an impressive creative team. Chastain executive produces alongside Kelly Carmichael through their company Freckle Films. Additional executive producers include Alan Poul (Six Feet Under, Tokyo Vice), Melissa James Gibson (House of Cards, Anatomy of a Scandal), and acclaimed filmmaker Matthew Heineman (Cartel Land, A Private War). David Levine and Garrett Kemble represent Anonymous Content, while journalist Andrea Stanley—whose Cosmopolitan article inspired the series—serves as a consultant.
This new project adds to Apple TV+’s growing slate of prestige dramas and thrillers, reinforcing its reputation for delivering cinematic storytelling across television, film, and documentary formats.
