Netflix’s ever-growing original lineup has yet another new addition: Easy, an eight-episode series from the mind of Joe Swanberg, mumblecore visionary and director of films like Happy Christmas and Digging for Fire. Each episode of the Chicago-based show will explore love, sex, and relationships—if that all sounds awfully familiar, it might be because those were the themes of another Netflix original, Love (which Swanberg just so happened to direct an episode of).
Unlike Love, however, Swanberg’s take on romance in the age of Tinder will be an anthology series with a new set of characters in every episode, ranging from married couples trying to spice up their marriages to single thirty-somethings navigating the dating scene. Over the last few years, the director has attracted bigger and bigger names to his projects, and Easy is no exception, with a cast that includes Malin Akerman, Orlando Bloom, Hannibal Buress, Dave Franco, Marc Maron, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Emily Ratajkowski, and many, many more.
All eight episodes of Easy will premiere on Sept 22.
