Apple TV+ debuts trailer for 'The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey,' coming March 11

The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey

"The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey" is based on the novel of the same name by Walter Mosley. The series stars Jackson as the titular Ptolemy Grey, "an ailing man forgotten by his family, by his friends, and by even himself."

"Suddenly left without his trusted caretaker and on the brink of sinking even deeper into a lonely dementia, Ptolemy is assigned to the care of orphaned teenager Robyn," Apple wrote of the series. "When they learn about a treatment that can temporarily restore Ptolemy's dementia-addled memories, it begins a journey toward shocking truths about the past, present and future."

In addition to starring, Jackson also produced the six-episode limited series. Dominique Fishback plays Robyn, and other cast members include Cynthia Kaye McWilliams, Damon Gupton, Marsha Stephanie Blake, Walton Goggins, and Omar Miller.

Mosley, the author of the book, adapted the story for the screen and is serving as executive producer alongside Jackson, Diane Houslin, Ramin Bahrani, Eli Selden and David Levine for Anonymous Content, and LaTanya Richardson

The first two episodes of the series will debut on Friday, March 11 on Apple TV+. An additional episode will then premiere weekly every Friday.
