A new series, ‘Pluribus,’ created by Vince Gilligan of ‘Breaking Bad’ fame, is set to captivate audiences with its gripping storyline. The show, premiering on Apple TV, unveils a monumental event that alters the course of humanity, leaving almost everyone transformed – except for Carol Sturka, played by Rhea Seehorn.
The plot revolves around an alien virus that infects the world, bringing unparalleled happiness to all but a select few. Seehorn’s character stands out as the sole US citizen immune to this infectious joy, setting the stage for a darkly comic and thought-provoking narrative.
With a nod to the US motto ‘E pluribus unum,’ meaning ‘Out of many, one,’ ‘Pluribus’ delves into the complexities of human nature amidst a global crisis. Gilligan’s departure from his signature intense dramas like ‘Breaking Bad’ and ‘Better Call Saul’ showcases his versatility as a storyteller, offering viewers a fresh perspective on societal upheaval and personal resilience.
