Get the cameras rolling, this is great stuff: The stars and co-creator of the savage reality TV satire UnREAL will reunite at next year’s ATX TV Festival for the show’s 10th anniversary.
Stars Shiri Appleby (Rachel), Constance Zimmer (Quinn), Jeffrey Bowyer-Chapman (Jay) and Craig Bierko (Chet) will join co-creator Sarah Gertrude Shapiro for a retrospective “to reflect on the show’s exploration of the dark side of reality TV, the complex antiheroes at its center, its most memorable character moments and one-liners, and how the show’s recent debut on Netflix has led to a resurgence with both original fans and new viewers,” per the festival’s official panel description.
Also slated for next year’s ATX: a conversation with Ted Lasso showrunner Bill Lawrence and his collaborators titled “Bill Lawrence & Friends”; a live table read of an unproduced script by The Haunting of Hill House’ s Mike Flanagan; a live acting class with TV legend Henry Winkler; and casting directors from Breaking Bad , The Bear , Suits and more highlighting their favorite unsung actors. These panels join a reunion of HBO’s The Leftovers — with cast members Justin Theroux, Carrie Coon, Amy Brenneman, Christopher Eccleston, Ann Dowd and Kevin Carroll, co-creators Damon Lindelof and Tom Perrotta and director/executive producer Mimi Leder — that was first announced on Monday .
