Stick trailer: Owen Wilson seeks redemption through young prodigy in sports comedy seres
Apple TV+ on Thursday released the trailer for their sports comedy series titled Stick. Created by Jason Keller, who has written films like Ford v. Ferrari (2019), Escape Plan (2013) and Machine Gun Preacher (2011), the show revolves around a former pro golfer, Pryce Cahill, played by Owen Wilson.
The trailer starts with a scene in a bar, where Cahill is presumably drowning his sorrows after a long day when he is recognised by Mitts (Marc Maron). Much to Cahill's dismay, Mitts proceeds to narrate the story of his downfall to the entire bar, and how he had a breakdown on live television during a tournament. To add injury to insult, he does this while laughing at him and saying, 'Bet you can't even look at a golf club after a train wreck like that, right?'

The scene transitions to a montage of the life of Stick (Pryce Cahill's moniker), where he reflects, 'Things were supposed to be different for me. I look in the mirror, and I would not bet on the guy.' This montage also depicts his divorce proceedings, revealing his struggle to cope and his denial. He is even seen receiving a lackluster pep talk from Mitts, the same man who previously insulted him. Finally, Cahill is shown teaching golf to seniors, his attention suddenly captured by the crisp sound of a well-hit ball.
He follows the sound and discovers a kid who, in Cahill's words, 'swings the golf club like a dream,' and to no one's surprise, he tries to convince the kid to become his student. In a twist no one saw coming, the young talent had a tough childhood, and his father, who taught him golf, has passed away. Cahill convinces his mother to let him take the kid to the US amateur championship and tells her that he thinks 'he can win it all'.
The main narrative of the series seems to be pretty clear, as Pryce Cahill will try to coach the kid to glory while he will learn some truths about himself along the way.
The show, also starring Peter Dager, Lili Kay and Judy Greer, will start streaming from June 4 on Apple TV+.

The actress will share the screen space with the legendary Julianne Moore. Sweeney recently made an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where she opened up about her ability to go from one extreme to the other while on set. When asked if she goes into her trailer to prepare and comes out in character, the actress said no and instead, 'I, like, jump in and out. It's kind of psychotic." 'Like, you're happy and fun, and then," Fallon cut in, and Sweeney finished the line, 'And then they say, 'Action!' and I'm screaming and crying. And then they call, 'Cut!' and I go, 'What's wrong?'" In the same conversation, Sydney Sweeney also shared her experience of working with Julianne Moore. Describing her as the 'most incredible human being," the actress added, 'She's so kind and fun, and just amazing to work with." When asked what it was like to 'get in those arguing scenes" with Moore, who plays her mother in the movie, Sweeney said, 'I felt so bad." She added, 'I did. 'Cause I am. I'm vicious. I'm really vicious." Apart from Sydney Sweeney and Julianne Moore, Echo Valley also features Domhnall Gleeson, Kyle McLachlan, Fiona Shaw, Edmund Donovan and Albert Jones in key roles.

Sydney Sweeney calls herself ‘really vicious', says it's ‘kind of psychotic' how she jumps in character: ‘I feel bad for my co-stars'
Sydney Sweeney's not spilling Euphoria season 3 secrets just yet. Showing up on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon, the actor opened up about her new Apple TV+ thriller Echo Valley, which also stars Julianne Moore. Sweeney talked about how she can snap in and out of character and described it as 'psychotic.' But Fallon wasn't letting her leave without dropping the question that's been blowing up the internet: does Cassie get married in Euphoria season 3? The upcoming season, starring Zendaya, Jacob Elordi, and a lineup fans have been dying to see again, is easily one of Sweeney's most hyped projects. 'Cassie is crazy,' she said with a grin, brushing off the noise. Also read: Sydney Sweeney releases soap infused with her own bathwater, fans react: 'Thanks, I'll take 100' In the newly released Apple TV+ show, Sydney plays the troubled daughter Claire. Julianne Moore stars as her mother. The story revolves around the life of a mother-daughter duo who go to extreme lengths to protect each other after the daughter shows up on the doorstep, soaked in blood. Sydney told Fallon that shooting emotional, violent scenes with Moore was intense. 'I, like, jump in and out,' Sydney said when Jimmy asked how she prepared for the role. 'It's kind of psychotic,' she added. 'Like, you're happy and fun, and then…' Jimmy cut in, and Sydney finished the line, 'And then they say, 'Action!' and I'm screaming and crying. And then they call, 'Cut!' and I go, 'What's wrong?'' Sydney said she really respects Moore and admires her acting, but realised later just how she may have hurt her verbally during a scene where the two had to argue. 'She's so kind and fun, and just amazing to work with,' Sydney said. 'I felt so bad,' she added. 'I did. 'Cause I am. I'm vicious. I'm really vicious.' Also read: MrBeast's viral reaction to fans begging for Sydney Sweeney's bathwater soap: 'Stop asking…' While chatting, Jimmy pulled out a leaked photo of Sydney on set, dressed in a wedding gown. The blurry pic has been the talk of the town ever since it leaked from the set. Does Cassie get married? To Nate (played by Jacob Elordi)? Is that even real? Jimmy straight-up asked her. Sydney downplayed it, 'I can't confirm or deny.' With a smirk, she added, 'Who knows, that could be AI.' Jimmy laughed it off, 'No, it can't.' Though she did say that she might spill the tea 'next time' she's on the show. What we do get, though, is that Cassie's character is going to be messier and a lot crazier. 'It's the favourite version of her. She's even worse, she's even worse,' Sydney told Jimmy. In another interview with Empire, the Madame Web star revealed that Euphoria Season 3 is completely 'unhinged,' and that she pushed for it. 'I have such a spot in my heart for Cassie, and I hold her really close and dear. She is crazy. She makes so many mistakes. She's flawed on so many levels, but she does it all from a place of love. It could be a sad version of love, as well.' She revealed she personally went to director Sam Levinson and said: 'Let's go crazier. He was all in.' On the personal front, Sydney reportedly ended her engagement with Jonathan Davino. They got engaged in 2022, but called it off earlier this year.
