The spy series, which Apple nabbed the rights to back in June, follows an Israeli Mossad agent and hacker going undercover on covert missions in Tehran.

Apple has ordered eight episodes of "Tehran," with the first three set to debut on Friday, Sept. 25. New episodes will debut each week.

Israeli actress Niv Sultan, known for "Flawless," will play lead character Tamar Rabinyan. Shaun Toub of "Iron Man" and Navid Negahban of "Homeland" will also star in the series. Cineflix Rights and Israel-based Kan 11 will co-produce the series with Apple.

The series will join an ever-increasing slate of original shows and films available exclusively from Apple's premium streaming service.
