The three couples at the center of Netflix’s comedy series The Four Seasons are going through it.
The trailer for the series, released Tuesday morning, shows the star-studded cast — Tina Fey, Will Forte, Steve Carell, Kerri Kenney-Silver, Colman Domingo and Marco Calvani — both relishing the time their group spends together and chafing at the boundaries of their marriages. In the latter category, Carell notes that he and his wife (Kenney-Silver) “sit in the same room monitoring different screens. We’re like co-workers at a nuclear facility.”
The trailer also reveals that it’s Carell’s character who splits up with his wife (Kenney-Silver) to be with a younger woman (Erika Henningsen) — in keeping with the plot of the 1981 movie on which The Four Seasons is based. Watch the trailer below.
The description for The Four Seasons reads, “Six old friends head for a relaxing weekend away only to learn that one couple in the group is about to split up. The three couples, Kate (Fey) and Jack (Forte), Nick (Carell) and Anne (Kenney-Silver), and Danny (Domingo) and Claude (Calvani), are completely upended by the news. Over the course of a year, we follow the friends on four vacations, and watch how this shake-up affects everyone’s dynamic — sending old issues and new bubbling to the surface.”
Along with the seven regulars, the Four Seasons cast also features Julia Lester, Ashlyn Maddox, Jacob Buckenmyer, Taylor Ortega, Simone Recasner, Toby Edward Huss, Tommy Do, Chloe Troast, Jack Gore and Cole Tristan Murphy.
Fey, Lang Fisher and Tracey Wigfield co-created The Four Seasons, which was a hot property as 2023’s labor strikes came to a close. Netflix won a bidding war for the Universal TV series by giving it a straight-to-series order in January 2024.
Fey, Fisher and Wigfield executive produce with David Miner, Jeff Richmond and Eric Gurian. Alan Alda — who starred in, wrote and directed the 1981 film — and Marissa Bregman, daughter of the fim’s producer Martin Bregman, are producers. Robert Pulcini andShari Springer Berman, Oz Rodriguez, Richmond, Domingo and Fisher directed.
