Apple TV Hosted the World Premiere for Brothers

Last night (21st) at the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles, Apple TV celebrated the world premiere of its new comedy series, “Brothers.” Real-life friends, stars and executive producers Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson attended the premiere, alongside ensemble cast members Natalie Martinez, Brittany Ishibashi, Nolan Almeida, Ella Grace Helton, Noah Carganilla, Highdee Kuan, Oona Yaffe and Holland Taylor, and executive producers Lee Eisenberg, Natalie Sandy, Trish Hofmann, Jeremy Plager and more. “Brothers” makes its global debut on Apple TV with the first two episodes on Wednesday, 23 September, followed by one new episode every Wednesday through 4 November, 2026.

“Brothers” follows Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson, who play fictionalised versions of themselves, and whose friendship is thrown into chaos when they uncover a decades-old secret: they might actually be brothers. After Woody’s daughter’s engagement falls apart, he loads up the family and heads to Austin for an extended stay at Matthew’s ranch. But what begins as a healing getaway quickly spirals when Matthew’s mother, Ma Mac (played by Holland Taylor), accidentally lets slip a long-buried secret that the two friends might actually be brothers. As Woody turns the ranch upside down in pursuit of the truth, Matthew finds himself juggling an entirely different identity crisis: a potential run for governor of Texas. The result is a heartfelt, chaotic and wildly funny story about friendship, family, fame and the messy line between myth and reality.

The ensemble cast starring alongside Harrelson and McConaughey includes Natalie Martinez, Brittany Ishibashi, Nolan Almeida, Ella Grace Helton, Noah Carganilla, Highdee Kuan, Oona Yaffe and Taylor.

“Brothers” is produced for Apple TV by Paramount Television Studios. Lee Eisenberg, McConaughey and Harrelson executive produce alongside Natalie Sandy, David West Read, Trish Hofmann, Bill Bost, Jason Winer, David Finkel, Brett Baer and Jeremy Plager. Trent O’Donnell directs multiple episodes, including the pilot.
