Mrs. American Pie: Kaia Gerber Alongside Kristen Wiig in The Apple TV+ Series
Mrs. American Pie: Jordan Bridges, Kaia Gerber, Jason Canela, Mindy Cohn, Julia Duffy, and Claudia Ferri have joined the cast of the new Apple TV+ comedy, Mrs. American Pie. Written by Abe Sylvia and directed by Tate Taylor, Mrs. American Pie is a story about a group of wonderfully impossible people. Set in the early 1970s, it follows the story of Maxine Simmons (Kristen Wiig) and her attempt to secure her place at America’s most exclusive table: high society in Palm Beach. As Maxine attempts to cross the line between the haves and the haves, the series asks the same questions that baffle us today: Who sits at the table? How do you join the elite? What are you willing to do?
