MUMBAI: Following a highly competitive situation, Apple TV+ has announced a series Sugar to feature Colin Farrell. It is a new genre-bending series hailing from creator and executive producer Mark Protosevich 'Thor', with the actor of 'The Batman' to be the executive producer and star in the lead role.

Hailing from Apple Studios, the new series is set to be directed by Academy Award nominee Fernando Meirelles 'City of God' who will also serve as executive producer, and executive produced by Academy and Emmy Award nominee Simon Kinberg 'X-Men', Audrey Chon 'Invasion' and Scott Greenberg 'The Guilty'. Chip Vucelich will also be executive producer.

Sugar marks the second collaboration for Kinberg’s Genre Films and Apple TV+, and will stream alongside the series 'Invasion', which recently received a second season renewal. The series is a science-fiction drama series co-created, written and executive produced by Kinberg and David Weil.
