The trailer for the 10-episode comedy reintroduces the Neighbors duo as a “platonic pair of former best friends approaching midlife who reconnect after a long rift,” according to the official logline. “Their friendship becomes all consuming—and destabilizes their lives in a hilarious way.”

Luke Macfarlane (Bros), Tre Hale (Love and Monsters), Carla Gallo (Bones) and Andrew Lopez (Blockers) co-star.

Rogen and Byrne previously worked together on the aforementioned 2014 flick Neighbors — as well as its 2016 sequel, Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising — in which they played a married couple that went to great lengths to sabotage the fraternity house next door. Nick Stoller, who directed both Neighbors films, co-created, directed and co-wrote Platonic with Francesca Delbanco (Friends From College). Rogen, Byrne, Stoller, Delbanco and Conor Welch (Panhandle) serve as executive producers.

Platonic is one of two Apple TV+ series headlined by Byrne. She also stars in the aerobics comedy Physical, which returns with Season 3 later this year (date TBA). Additionally, Rogen is set to star in an as-yet-untitled showbiz comedy that revolves around an old Hollywood movie studio that he will write, direct and executive-produce alongside Evan Goldberg.

As previously reported, Platonic bows Wednesday, May 24, with its first three episodes. A new episode will follow every Wednesday through July 12.
