Aaron Pierre Joins 'The Morning Show' Season 4 On Apple TV+

Apple TV+'s The Morning Show is gearing up for an exciting Season 4 with the addition of Aaron Pierre, known for his roles in Genius: MLK/X and The Underground Railroad. Pierre is set to play Miles, a prominent visual artist navigating New York's elite circles.

The series, which delves into the intense world of morning news, left viewers on a cliffhanger at the end of Season 3. Alex (Jennifer Aniston) thwarted Paul Marks' (Jon Hamm) attempt to sell UBA to his tech company, Hyperion. Now, UBA faces a potential merger with another media company, which could lead to significant layoffs and restructuring.

Season 4 will also feature new cast members Marion Cotillard and Jeremy Irons, joining returning stars Reese Witherspoon, Billy Crudup, Mark Duplass, Nestor Carbonell, Karen Pittman, Greta Lee, and Nicole Beharie. Witherspoon and Aniston continue their roles as executive producers, alongside Kerry Ehrin, director Mimi Leder, and Michael Ellenberg. The series is produced by Media Res, Hello Sunshine, and Echo Films, with Charlotte Stoudt serving as showrunner.

Aaron Pierre's recent work includes leading roles in NatGeo's Genius: MLK/X and the film Foe alongside Paul Mescal and Saoirse Ronan. He will also appear in Netflix's Rebel Ridge and voice Mufasa in Barry Jenkins' upcoming The Lion King prequel for Disney. His previous credits include Brother, The Underground Railroad, and M. Night Shyamalan's Old.

Pierre is represented by WME, Anonymous Content, Hamilton Hodell, and Sloane Offer Weber & Dern.
