The trailer for Community star Alison Brie's new thriller Apples Never Fall is here.

Based on Liane Moriarty's best-selling novel of the same name, Apples Never Fall follows the story of married couple Joy and Stan Delaney, who are about to enjoy the golden years of their life after their adult children have left home and they've sold their successful tennis academy.

Their lives are turned upside down when Joy goes missing, and her children become reluctant to report the disappearance as they question their dad's innocence.

Joy and Stan will be played by Nyad star Annette Bening and Jurassic Park icon Sam Neill, while Brie will appear as Amy, one of the couple's four children. Their remaining children – Logan, Troy, and Brooke – will be portrayed by Thai Cave Rescue's Conor Merrigan Turner, Carol star Jake Lacy, and Speedway's Essie Randles.

A first-look trailer for the thriller series teases the complicated family dynamics behind the perfect family veneer, beginning with Joy thanking her children and husband for their support as she and Stan say goodbye to the Delaney Academy.

"You can spend a lifetime with someone as a wife or as a mother, but you can never really know who they are," Bening's Joy says before we pan over a scene of apples strewn across a road next to an overturned, blood-splattered bicycle.

Brie's Amy deduces that something has happened to their mother as she isn't responding to any of their calls or texts, kicking off an investigation of their own as television reports break the news of the disappearance.

The logline for the show reads: "The Delaney family seems happy but Joy disappears, forcing her husband and four adult children to reassess their family history."

It is not the first time Moriarty's work has been adapted for television, with Big Little Lies and Nine Perfect Strangers amassing fans across the globe.

A second season of Nine Perfect Strangers was confirmed last year, with a brand-new cast of characters joining Nicole Kidman's resort director. Reese Witherspoon has also confirmed that a third season of Big Little Lies is in production.

Apples Never Fall will premiere on March 14 on Peacock.
