Apple TV+ is adding another high-profile actor to The Morning Show.

Irons joins Marion Cotillard as a newcomer to The Morning Show’s cast for season four. The coming season will jump ahead two years from the season three finale cliffhanger that saw Alex’s fellow TV anchor Bradley (Reese Witherspoon) taken into FBI custody.

“We re-enter the world mid-chaos,” Aniston, who’s also an executive producer, told The Hollywood Reporter after season three ended. “Because [Alex is] jumping into something that has never existed. She’s a bit of a pioneer, and she is kind of left alone on a buoy.”

Billy Crudup, Mark Duplass, Néstor Carbonell, Karen Pittman, Greta Lee, Jon Hamm and Nicole Beharie also star in The Morning Show.

Media Res, Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine and Aniston’s Echo Films produce the series. Showrunner Charlotte Stoudt executive produces with director Mimi Leder, Aniston, Witherspoon, Michael Ellenberg of Media Res, Micah Shchraft, Zander Lehmann, Kristin Hahn of Echo Films and Lauren Neustadter of Hello Sunshine.

Irons’ recent credits include The Beekeeper, House of Gucci and HBO’s Watchmen, for which he earned an Emmy nomination. He is repped by CAA.
