‘Apples Never Fall’ Showrunner on That Ending, Changes From the Book and Why Everyone Should Call Their Mom After Watching
Showrunner Melanie Marnich explained the changes she made from the novel and how she crafted the final scene for Peacock's 'Apples Never Fall.'
The seven-episode limited series revolves around the tennis-obsessed Delaneys, whose lives unravel after a troubled young woman named Savannah (Georgia Flood) shows up at their door, and the family matriarch Joy (Annette Bening) later disappears. When her husband Stan (Sam Neill) becomes a prime suspect in the investigation, their children — played by Alison Brie, Jake Lacy, Conor Merrigan-Turner and Essie Randles — are forced to reexamine everything they know about their parents’ marriage. Marnich sat down with Variety to break down the changes she made from the novel, how she crafted the final scene — and why she wants viewers to call their mom after finishing the series.
