And we keep talking about the Apple TV + video streaming service. In the previous article, we informed you about one of the movies that Apple will launch in the coming months on Apple TV +, CODA, after buy the rights to the Sundance festival for $ 25 million.
If we are talking about the next projects in the format of the Apple series, we must talk We crushed, a mini series based on the podcast WeCrashed: The Rise and Fall of WeWork. This series will star Jared Leto and Anne Hathaway, who will also be executive producers.
This mini series of 8 chapters will show us the rise and fall of WeWork, one of the startups that came to be considered one of the most valuable in the world, with nearly 47 billion valuations before its IPO, a company that offered shared workspaces to emerging companies.
During the IPO process, US regulatory authorities noted a large number of irregularities (He spent more than he earned, conflicts of interest, several of the leased properties were owned by the owner …) and their value fell to $ 8 billion, with the head of the company being fired and saved by his largest shareholder at the time.
Soon after, the Wall Street Journal discovered the ploy he had used: ponzi scheme, a method of investing based on inside information that tends to attract high net worth investors, which is why its value before it went public was so high compared to the reality of the company.
Jared leto, winner of a Golden Globe and a Hollywood Academy Oscar for his role in Dallas Buyers Club, will play the role of Adam Neuman, founder of WeWork.
Anne Hathaway, also winner of a Hollywood Academy Oscar, Golden Globe, BAFTA and Emmy for her role in the film Wretched, will play Rebekah Newmann, wife of Adam and co-founder of WeWork.
