Apple TV+ Orders Eva Longoria Dramedy Land of Women

Apple TV+ has ordered to series Land of Women, a new dramedy starring and executive produced by Eva Longoria that is inspired by the best-selling novel of the same name.

Land of Women sees Longoria starring as Gala, a New York empty nester whose life is turned upside down when her husband implicates the family in financial improprieties, and she is forced to flee the city alongside her aging mother and college-age daughter.

To escape the dangerous criminals to whom Gala’s now vanished husband is indebted, the three women hide in the same charming wine town in Northern Spain that Gala’s mother fled 50 years ago, vowing never to return. The women seek to start anew and hope their identities will remain unknown, but gossip in the small town quickly spreads, unraveling their deepest family secrets and truths.

Carmen Maura (Volver, Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown) joins the cast as Gala’s mother, Julia.

The series is created and written by Iris Award winners Ramón Campos (Gran Hotel, Velvet) and Gema R. Neira (Now and Then, Velvet). Longoria (Flamin’ Hot, Sylvie’s Love) will executive produce via her UnbeliEVAble Entertainment banner.

The series is currently in pre-production in Spain. It is produced for Apple TV+ by Bambú Studios. The show will be shot in both English and Spanish and made available to watch in each language.
