Is Jessica Chastain’s ‘The Savant’ Ever Going to Premiere? The series was pulled from Apple TV’s schedule one month ago. Things have gotten weirder since then.

Reads like they’re afraid to piss off conservatives
*”The Savant stars Chastain as an undercover investigator who infiltrates online hate groups and takes them down from the inside. More specifically, Chastain’s character embeds herself on dark-web message boards spreading white-supremacist rhetoric. She participates in the conversation with a purpose: to identify and stop these men before they carry out heinous hate crimes.”*
>Chastain wrote on her Instagram the following day. “That said, I wanted to reach out and let you know that we’re not aligned on the decision to pause the release of The Savant.”
>She continued, “In the last five years since we’ve been making the show, we’ve seen an unfortunate amount of violence in the United States: the kidnapping attempt on Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer; the January 6th attack on the Capitol; the assassination attempts on President Trump; the political assassinations of Democratic representatives in Minnesota; the attack on Speaker Pelosi’s husband; the assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk; the recent shooting at an ABC affiliate station in California; and over 300 school shootings across this country,” she continued. “These incidents, though far from encompassing the full range of violence witnessed in the United States, illustrate a broader mindset that crosses the political spectrum and must be confronted. I’ve never shied away from difficult subjects, and while I wish this show wasn’t so relevant, unfortunately it is. The Savant is about the heroes who work every day to stop violence before it happens, and honoring their courage feels more urgent than ever. While I respect Apple’s decision to pause the release for now, I remain hopeful the show will reach audiences soon. Until then, I’m wishing safety and strength for everyone, and I’ll let you know if and when The Savant is released.”
Yeah this show ain’t coming out.
Fuck MAGA, Fuck Conservatives, Fuck White Supremacy. And Fuck Apple
Tim Apple bends the knee to sniff the diaper.
Writers Room: “I mean, white supremacists as bad guys can’t possibly be controversial right?… Right?”
Apple, the company that gave money for the White House demolition ballroom?
Yeah, go ahead and file this under Lost Media
At least Charlie Kirk’s still dead
As important as the subject is, from what i’ve heard the show was just really badly written… Chastain has a certain knack for getting cast into shlock far beneath her talent.
Tim Cook is helping building the White House ballroom. The Savant will never air as long as he has orange makeup around his lips.
The fact they won’t air it because it’s about WHITE SUPREMACISTS but would have no problem if it were about middle eastern terrorists should tell you all you need to know about how much these media companies are scared of Trump and MAGA and the fact they know Trump and MAGA are white supremacists who would be angry in the first place
