Production
After finishing Better Call Saul, Vince Gilligan pitched a new series that he would develop in August 2022 with Sony Pictures Television.[6] The following month, Apple TV+ won the rights to the show, giving it a two-season order. Gilligan serves as showrunner and executive producer, and Rhea Seehorn was cast in the lead role.[7]
Writing for the first season was interrupted by the 2023 WGA strike, but Gilligan and his writers' room regrouped in October 2023 to finish the last two episodes. The strike also pushed back the plans to begin shooting, possibly into the winter in Albuquerque, New Mexico.[3] In March 2024, Karolina Wydra was cast in the series as well.[8]
Filming ultimately began on the series by February 2024,[9] and finished in September 2024 after 7 months of production in Albuquerque, New Mexico under the working title of Wycaro 339.[10] The official series title of Pluribus was revealed in July 2025 when the release date was announced.[5]
Release
Pluribus premieres its first two episodes on November 7, 2025, on Apple TV+, followed by new episodes every Friday through December 26.[5]
