Netflix’s Maniac is one of the most unusual character studies in television history. It’s lead characters – Annie Landsberg and Owen Milgrim – are two genuinely messed up characters who seek help via a secretive medical trial.
Series stars Emma Stone and Jonah Hill join co-creators Cary Fukakaga and Patrick Somerville to talk about the whole WTF-edness of the show.
Schizophrenic Owen Milgrim and depressive Annie Landsberg have volunteered for a unique new treatment that seems to involve, among other things, placing them in different virtual reality scenarios.
No matter where they are placing separately, they somehow find their way to each other.
Maniac premieres on Netflix on September 21st.
Two people who have problems that seem insurmountable take part in a unique and mysterious pharmaceutical trial – with highly unusual result.
Maniac stars Emma Stone as Annie Landsberg; Jonah Hill as Owen Milgrom and Justin Theroux as Dr. James K. Mantleray – and will premiere globally on Netflix on Friday, September 21st.
Set in a world somewhat like our world, in a time quite similar to our time, Maniac tells the stories of Annie Landsberg (Emma Stone) and Owen Milgrim (Jonah Hill), two strangers drawn to the late stages of a mysterious pharmaceutical trial, each for their own reasons.
Limited series Maniac will launch on September 21, 2018.

La La Land is a strange beast – influenced equally by Hollywood musicals like Singing in the Rain (to which there is a fun reference) and Jacques Demy’s The Umbrellas of Cherbourg – that is something more than mere colorful fun.
Damien Chazelle’s second film is the story of two struggling artists – jazz pianist Sebastian (Ryan Gosling) and wannabe actor Mia (Emma Stone) – who don’t exactly meet cute, then do before going on to have a very real relationship (cleverly camouflaged as piece of fluff musical).
Her last audition lasted five seconds; he got fired from his lounge gig playing piano – at Christmas! Neither’s dream of making it in La La Land is deterred. Sounds like a movie musical to me.
Damien Chazelle’s new film couldn’t be further away from his feature debut, Whiplash, but it looks pretty amazing in the new trailer, Dreamers. Check it out after the break.
La La Land will be in theaters on December 9th.
We’ve heard Ryan Gosling sing in the first teaser for Damien Chazelle’s La La Land so it’s only fair that co-star Emma Stone should be given the opportunity to reply.
The second teaser for the film just makes sense – and adds a little more insight into what the film will be (a Hollywood musical, but not quite). Check it out after the break.
Damien Chazelle’s La La Land will be in theaters on December 16th.
