Apple is creating its first original television show. According to The Hollywood Reporter, one of the company's executives, Dr. Dre, is among the cast members. The half-hour scripted series is described as "a dark drama with no shortage of violence and sex."
The Beats co-founder also serves as an executive producer for the project dubbed "Vital Signs". It is rumored to be semi-autobiographical, with each episode focusing on how Dre's character deals with a different emotion. Sam Rockwell and Mo McCrae are reportedly among the additional cast.
An orgy scene featuring naked extras has been filmed in a mansion in the Bird Streets neighborhood of Los Angeles' Hollywood Hills. Veteran music video director Paul Hunter sits behind the lens while "Empire" co-exec producer-writer Robert Munic was hand-picked by Dre to write all six episodes and exec-produce.
