Apple TV+ series ‘Where’s Wanda?’ offers pinch of ‘Twin Peaks’ eeriness – Reuters
Axel Stein and Heike Makatsch star in “Where’s Wanda?,” coming to Apple TV+ Wednesday, October 2, 2024.
Apple TV+’s first German original – ‘Where’s Wanda?’ – will premiere globally with the first two episodes on Wednesday, October 2, 2024, followed by one episode weekly through November 13.
“Where’s Wanda?” tells the story of Dedo and Carlotta Klatt (Stein and Makatsch), who are desperate to locate their missing 17-year-old daughter Wanda (Drinda), who disappeared months ago without a trace. When the police fail to find her, the family takes matters into their own hands, obtaining surveillance devices with the help of their tech-savvy son Ole (Simon). Disguising themselves as employees of an electrical company, they bug their neighborhood and then half their suburb, finding out that behind closed doors, none of their neighbors are who they pretend to be.
Apple TV+’s first German-language series, “Where’s Wanda?”, is about a family’s desperate search for their missing teenage daughter but, despite its dark subject matter, it aims to make audiences laugh.
It does so through a colourful cast of characters and situations verging on the absurd.
“That was the basic concept of the series, that we have a very difficult topic, the disappearance of Wanda. And yet, of course, we still try to deal with it with funny situations or funny people,” Axel Stein, who stars as Dedo Klatt, father of the missing Wanda, told Reuters.
He thanked Apple TV+ for trusting in the series…
There is a pinch of the eeriness of the American TV series “Twin Peaks”.
