Tom Holland to lead first season of Apple’s new series ‘The Crowded Room’

Actor Tom Holland will star in the first season of a new seasonal anthology series for Apple TV Plus.

Titled “The Crowded Room”, the show comes from Academy Award-winning scribe Akiva Goldsman, the streamer said in a statement.

Described as a gripping anthology series, the show will explore the true and inspirational stories of those who have struggled and learned to successfully live with mental illness.

Season one is inspired by the award-winning biography “The Minds of Billy Milligan” by Daniel Keyes.

The 10-episode season will feature Holland as Billy Milligan, the first person ever acquitted of a crime because of multiple personality disorder, now known as dissociative identity disorder.
