Get ready for a hilarious new series that will have you laughing and reflecting! The highly anticipated trailer for 'Rooster' has just landed, starring the one and only Steve Carell.
This upcoming HBO comedy series is set to explore the complex relationship between a father and daughter. Carell, known for his iconic role in 'The Office,' plays an author with a complicated family dynamic alongside Charly Clive. The show is created by Bill Lawrence, the mastermind behind fan favorites like 'Shrinking' and 'Ted Lasso.' Lawrence, a New England native, shared his excitement about setting the show in his home state of Massachusetts, adding a personal touch to the story.
But here's where it gets interesting: the series was filmed on the West Coast, at the University of the Pacific in Stockton, California, which was transformed into the fictional Ludlow College. This has sparked curiosity about the show's actual setting. Will it truly be set in Massachusetts, or will it surprise us with a different location? And this is the part most people miss—the real-life general store owned by Carell in Marshfield Hills might not make an appearance, despite the show's original intention.
'Rooster' also boasts an impressive cast, including Danielle Deadwyler, Phil Dunster, Lauren Tsai, and John C. McGinley, a frequent collaborator of Lawrence's. McGinley is set to reprise his beloved role as Dr. Cox in the upcoming 'Scrubs' reboot.
Mark your calendars for the premiere on March 8 at 10 p.m. on HBO, with weekly episodes streaming on HBO Max until May 10. Get ready for some laughter and heartfelt moments!
