Apple today premieres its new original series Time Bandits, inspired by the 1980s movie of the same name. Taika Waititi produced and stars in this latest incarnation, also featuring Lisa Kudrow as Penelope, leading a squad across time and space to help save the world.
Eleven-year-old Kevin is the Time Bandits’ newest recruit, a history nerd who is a key aide on the time-travelling missions. This fun, light-hearted, series is designed for the whole family to enjoy. Watch with an Apple TV+ subscription.
The show follows the crew as they visit a variety of fascinating worlds and fight the evil forces threatening to end life as they know it, relying on Kevin’s knowledge to identify artifacts and relics. The Time Bandits bring the viewer along to see the creation of Stonehenge, the prehistoric dinosaur era, freeze in the Ice Age, live in medieval times, and more.
