‘Pluribus': First-look teaser of ‘Breaking Bad' creator Vince Gilligan's sci-fi series out; release date announced
Apple on Friday (July 25) unveiled a first-look teaser of its upcoming sci-fi series Pluribus, which is Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan's return to television. Starring Rhea Seehorn (who starred in Gilligan's Breaking Bad spin-off Better Call Saul), the nine-episode series premieres with its first two episodes on Apple TV+ on November 5, followed by new episodes every Friday. In the extremely unsettling 30-second first-look teaser, we see a woman wearing pink scrubs lick donuts before placing them in a box that reads 'Help yourself.' Meanwhile, the first-look image of Seehorn from the series features the actor's character, on a phone call, looking ahead with a puzzled expression. The project is already generating early buzz due to the strength of its creative team. Gilligan's past shows have been critically acclaimed and commercially successful, while Seehorn has earned consistent praise for her dramatic range. According to a press release from Apple, Pluribus is a 'genre-bending original in which the most miserable person on Earth must save the world from happiness.' Interestingly, the series has already been renewed for a second season. The project is already generating early buzz due to the strength of its creative team. Gilligan's past shows have been critically acclaimed and commercially successful, while Seehorn has earned consistent praise for her dramatic range. In an earlier interview with Variety, Gilligan made some revelations about the concept and tenor of his new show. Though unfolding in Albuquerque, New Mexico — the setting of both Saul and five seasons of Breaking Bad — it will have 'no crime, and no methamphetamine,' he said. 'I wouldn't call this heavy science fiction, I would call it mild science fiction,' Gilligan was quoted as saying. 'But it does have a sci-fi element to it, at its core. And there's no crime, and no methamphetamine. It's going to be fun and different.' Asked to tease the plot, Gilligan divulged, 'The world changes very abruptly in the first episode, and then it is quite different. It's the modern world — the world we live in — but it changes very abruptly. And the consequences that that reaps hopefully provide drama for many, many episodes after that.' The cast of Pluribus also features Karolina Wydra and Carlos Manuel Vesga, with Miriam Shor and Samba Schutte appearing in guest roles. Sony Pictures Television produces the series. Gilligan, Gordon Smith, Alison Tatlock, Diane Mercer, Allyce Ozarski and Jeff Frost serve as executive producers.

Rosario Tijeras Season 5: Latest updates on renewal status, release date, cast and plot details
By Aman Shukla Published on July 24, 2025, 18:00 IST Last updated July 24, 2025, 10:54 IST If you've been binge-watching Rosario Tijeras on Netflix and found yourself wondering whether there's more of Rosario's story on the way, you're definitely not alone. Ever since Season 4 dropped on June 18, 2025, fans have been buzzing with questions about a possible fifth season. And while nothing's been officially announced just yet, there are definitely a few signs that something might be in the works. Here's a breakdown of everything we know about Rosario Tijeras Season 5. Renewal Status: Is Rosario Tijeras Season 5 Happening? As of now — nope, there's no official word from Netflix, TV Azteca, or Sony Pictures Television. But the big reason fans are getting excited? A recent post by Bárbara de Regil , who plays Rosario herself. She shared something pretty cryptic on X (yep, that's what Twitter's called now), and let's just say it definitely hinted that Season 5 could be in the pipeline. No confirmation yet, but it's enough to give fans hope. Given how popular the show is — not just in Mexico but worldwide thanks to Netflix — it wouldn't be a shocker if they go ahead with another season. But until there's a formal update, it's all just hopeful talk. Potential Release Date for Rosario Tijeras Season 5 Let's be real: without a greenlight, it's tricky to guess a release date. But if we go by past seasons, there's a pattern. Season 4 was announced in May 2023, filmed in mid-2024, and finally released in June 2025. If they follow that same timeline, then Season 5 could be filmed in 2026 and released late that year or early 2027. There's even a rumor floating around about a June 17, 2026 premiere with 40 episodes. Sounds exciting, but don't bank on it just yet — it hasn't been confirmed by anyone involved. Rosario Tijeras Season 5 Expected Cast If Season 5 happens, you can probably count on seeing most of the core cast again. Here's who we'd expect to return: Bárbara de Regil as Rosario Tijeras – She is the show. Her performance, her story, everything revolves around her. And her recent tease makes it seem like she's 100% down for more. Samantha Acuña as Ruby – Rosario's daughter had a huge role in Season 4, and her complicated feelings toward her mom are far from settled. José María de Tavira as Antonio – Still tangled in Rosario's heart and her drama, and that probably won't change. Antonio Gaona as Emilio – Another big part of Rosario's love life. This triangle isn't over. Hernán Mendoza as El Guero – He's been part of the darker side of the show's world. Whether or not he returns likely depends on how the story unfolds. Also, Season 4 brought in fresh faces like Juan Antonio and Gael. There's a good chance we'll see more of them—or new characters tied to Ruby's growing role, especially if her storyline keeps expanding. Rosario Tijeras Season 5 Potential Plot Season 4 left us with a lot to think about. Rosario spent most of the season trying to reconnect with Ruby, who was living in a shelter after her adoptive parents were killed. She went undercover, faced off with new enemies like Don Américo and El Papi, and tried to juggle both her dangerous past and her hopes for a better future. But things didn't end all sunshine and roses. In fact, the season closed with Ruby rejecting her mother after learning who she really is. Ouch. So if Season 5 moves forward, expect it to dive deep into that broken mother-daughter relationship. On top of that, Ruby's new romance with Teo — who just happens to be El Papi's brother — is bound to stir up more trouble. And let's be honest, Rosario isn't the kind of person who walks away from a fight. She'll likely have to face new enemies, old wounds, and tough choices again.
