TVLine Items: Timothy Olyphant Joins Owen Wilson Series, LEGO Pixar Trailer and More
Timothy Olyphant is taking a swing in Apple TV+’s untitled golf comedy starring Owen Wilson.
The series centers around Pryce Cahill (Wilson), “an over-the-hill, ex-pro golfer whose career was derailed prematurely 20 years ago,” per the official logline. “After he gets fired from his job at an Indiana sporting goods store and his wife (Judy Greer) walks out on him, Pryce hedges his bets entirely on a troubled 17-year-old golf phenom (Peter Dager).”
