Apple TV is developing a new dramedy, “Lenni,” with Toni Collette set to lead the series, which is adapted from a Norwegian show known locally as “Pernille” (also referred to as “Pørni”). The project is produced by Made Up Stories and Keshet International, and it is described as a comedy-drama about a divorced social worker.
Across the outlets, the core details are consistent: Collette is the lead, Apple TV is the platform, and the series comes from a Norwegian format. Deadline and Variety both link the adaptation to producers associated with Nine Perfect Strangers and Homeland, respectively, while also identifying the Norwegian source material. Variety additionally highlights elements of the cast beyond Collette, naming several supporting performers.
Where coverage differs, outlets vary in how much they explain the premise and how many cast details they include. Some focus mainly on the lead and the international format, while others add a fuller snapshot of the ensemble.
