    Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement’s batch of Time Bandits will make their debut on Wednesday, July 24 on Apple TV+.

    Created by Waititi, Clement and Iain Morris, the reimagining of Terry Gilliam’s 1981 cult fantasy film is officially described as a “comedic journey through time and space with a ragtag group of thieves and their newest recruit: an eleven-year-old history nerd” (played by relative newcomer Kal-El Tuck). “Together, they set out on a thrilling quest to save the boy’s parents — and the world.”

    The series cast also includes Lisa Kudrow ( Friends, The Comeback ), Charlyne Yi ( House ), Tadhg Murphy ( Vikings ), Roger Jean Nsengiyumva ( Armchair Detectives ), Rune Temte ( Fortitude ), Kiera Thompson ( The Salisbury Poisonings ) and Rachel House ( Stateless ), with special guest appearances by Waititi and Clement.
