‘The Holiday’ limited series based on Nancy Meyers’ 2006 film in development at Apple TV+

Apple TV+ is working on a limited-series adaptation of Nancy Meyers’ 2006 romantic comedy film “The Holiday,” according to a source familiar with the project, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter. The original movie featured Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Jude Law, and Jack Black.

Tony Maglio for The Hollywood Reporter:

Meyers is not involved in the adaptation — she didn’t even know about it.
“News to me,” Meyers wrote on her Instagram on Friday. “Imagine my surprise when I opened Instagram and this was the first post I saw.”
Krissie Ducker will write and executive produce through Left Bank Pictures; Rob Delaney (Catastrophe) is a consultant.
Ducker was a writers’ assistant on Catastrophe. For Delaney, should The Holiday get an official greenlight, it will mark his return to Apple TV+ after starring in season one of Bad Monkey.
The Apple TV+ limited series will follow new characters. Like the ‘06 comedy, this version will follow a single American woman and a single British woman, living very different lives, who swap their houses for the holidays. They, of course, find love along the way.
The newcomers have yet to be cast.
