Brie Larson won the Oscar for Best Actress for “Room” in 2016. Since then she has worked primarily in major franchises — appearing in “Avengers: Endgame” and a handful of other MCU projects as Captain Marvel and in the “Fast and Furious” film series. The actress hasn’t really found a project to show the talent she displayed in her tour de force performance in “Room” until now.
She stars in “Lessons in Chemistry,” the Apple TV+ show based on the novel of the same name by Bonnie Garmus. It follows Larson as Elizabeth Zott, a lab tech and chemist who uses her new job hosting a 1960s TV cooking show to educate housewives on scientific topics. The result is an entertaining period story in which Larson utilizes her distinct energy and impressive range to full effect. Larson injects Elizabeth with intelligence and heart but also zip, determination, and frustration in a well-rounded performance.

Exclusive: Netflix has locked down rights to an untitled adult thriller spec from Michael Werwie, with Jason Bateman and Michael Costigan set to produce for Aggregate Films, sources tell Deadline.
Plot details are under wraps. Falling under Aggregate’s first-look deal with Netflix across film and TV, the sale comes at a busy time for the company, which most recently set up comedy The Chaperone at the streamer, as a potential star vehicle for Bateman. Recently bringing in Amblin vet John Buderwitz to serve as VP of Film, the company also last summer teamed with Netflix in a bidding war over David Gauvey Herbert’s 2021 Esquire magazine article “Daddy Ball,” which is being developed as a limited series for Bateman to direct, star in, and co-ep alongside Costigan and Roxie Rodriguez.

When Sarah Adina Smith was first approached about directing “Lessons in Chemistry,” she was not familiar with the Bonnie Garmus novel of the same name on which the series is based. Smith had to “speed-read the book” in one weekend and admits that she was not quite sure at first if a series adaptation was necessary. Set in the 1950s and ’60s, “Lessons” follows Elizabeth Zott (Brie Larson), a brilliant chemist whose career aspirations are stalled by patriarchal norms but later becomes the star of a cooking show, “Supper at Six,” on which she gets to flex her science know-how.
“To be honest, maybe I’m not supposed to say this, but I was like, ‘Do we need this series?’ Yes, obviously, sexism is alive and well. I don’t need to debate that, but do we need this story about a fictional female scientist in the ’50s facing discrimination in the workplace?...

Actress Brie Larson recently spoke at length about her latest MCU film ‘The Marvels’ after the end of the actor’s strike. Talking about the movie, she said that playing superheroes is a weirdly specific job.
Speaking at ‘The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon’, she said: “Being a superhero is like a weird, specific job,” Larson told Fallon. “Who else is going to be like, ‘And make sure you have extra zippers so you can go to the bathroom.’ … It’s just like very strange things,” as per The Hollywood Reporter.
Fallon noted that Larson was the first member of ‘The Marvels’ crew to congratulate actress Iman Vellani for playing Ms. Marvel in the film. In response, she said: “I felt really lucky because the first time I played Captain Marvel was on ‘Avengers’, and so I had Scarlett Johansson as the first person who welcomed me and I got...

Brie Larson was beyond thrilled to finally be able to talk about her latest acting projects since the SAG-AFTRA strike has officially ended.
The actress made an appearance on Friday’s episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where she had a lot to tell about The Marvels as well as her Apple TV+ series Lessons in Chemistry. Before the union reached a tentative deal with studios and streamers on Wednesday, stars were unable to talk about any struck projects.
As for her return as Captain Marvel in The Marvels, which is currently playing in theaters, Larson said, “I’m back, and I brought some friends this time.” In the film, Carol Danvers, aka Captain Marvel, gets her powers entangled with those of Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) and Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris), forcing them to work together to save the universe.

This article contains spoilers for Lessons in Chemistry through episode 4.
There’s no disputing that Six-Thirty is the very best boi. All dogs are the very best dogs. And Six-Thirty is no exception. In Lessons in Chemistry — both the novel and the Apple TV+ series — Six-Thirty is a thoughtful, protective stray who loves his family fiercely and is treated like an equal in return. Author Bonnie Garmus originally brought the pup to life on the page, handing over a hefty portion of the narrative duties to Elizabeth Zott’s best friend.
In a fantastical bit of storytelling, Garmus asks readers to believe that Elizabeth is able to successfully teach Six-Thirty to recognize nearly a thousand distinct words. So when we reach passages that feature his inner monologue, it feels like a really intelligent dog is talking directly to us. While this concept requires some suspension of disbelief, Garmus does an...

If you’re still feeling very big feelings after Episode 3 of “Lessons in Chemistry,” thanks to some poignant narration from a certain pup, don’t worry — you’re not alone. In fact, directors Bert and Bertie specifically set out to do that. But, they do admit that telling a story of grief through the lens of a dog was “eye-opening,” even for them.
In this particular episode of the Brie Larson-led limited series, now streaming on Apple TV+, the opening minutes tell the origin story of Six Thirty, the dog Elizabeth Zott (Larson) adopted who later tried saving Calvin Evans (Lewis Pullman) from running out into the street to his death. Not only is it a heartbreaking origin — he started as a military dog, but ran away — but the narration that follows, courtesy of B.J. Novak, likely left you holding your own dog close, as Six Thirty mourned his running buddy and blamed himself.

The placement of a particular cliffhanger at the end of “Lessons in Chemistry’s” second episode was debated intensely by showrunner Lee Eisenberg, director Sarah Adina Smith and the show’s writers.
The second episode in the Apple TV+ series, adapted from the best-selling novel by Bonnie Garmus, ends on a tragic note with the death of the character Calvin Evans, portrayed by Lewis Pullman. The first two episodes premiered Friday.
“We spent the very first few weeks debating this [plot point] ad nauseam. We wanted the audience to invest as much as possible in this love story as much as we were,” Eisenberg told TheWrap. “Ultimately, we pulled that from the book and the book.

In Lessons in Chemistry’s two-episode premiere, a surprising star emerged: Aja Naomi King’s Harriet Sloane.
The Apple TV+ series, based on the eponymous 2022 novel by Bonnie Garmus, follows Elizabeth Zott (played by Brie Larson) as she works to become a scientist in Southern California during the patriarchal 1950s. Those familiar with the book know that Harriet’s role in the novel is a supporting one — she’s a neighbor who babysits Elizabeth’s daughter while Elizabeth pursues a career in chemistry. Harriet is described as older and though Garmus doesn’t explicitly say it, it’s implied that she is white.

One of the most anticipated TV shows this fall is Apple TV+'s "Lessons in Chemistry." Based on the bestselling novel by Bonnie Garmus, the series stars Brie Larson, Lewis Pullman, and Aja Naomi King in a story of a midcentury American woman who struggles to gain a foothold in a scientific world that refuses to respect her. With perfectly retro sets and costumes evoking the 1950s, it feels like the kind of show that could be based on real life - but it actually isn't.
Is "Lessons in Chemistry" Based on a True Story?

Lab technician Elizabeth Zott’s job at the Hastings Research Institute rarely lets her do more than clean beakers and serve coffee. It’s the only position in a chemistry lab available to a woman in the 1950s, so she endures the condescension and creepiness of her male colleagues, determined that one day she’ll get to prove her worth as a scientist.
As Elizabeth, Brie Larson brings a commanding presence to Lessons in Chemistry from the first moment we catch a glimpse of her striding through the lab with a steely expression on her face, prepared to take on anyone who gets in her way. It’s certainly a character we’ve seen before—gifted but socially naïve, direct in a manner that can seem rude, and literal-minded in a way that’s often played for laughs—but Larson never allows Elizabeth to become a caricature.

Based on the best-selling novel from author, science editor, and copywriter Bonnie Garmus, the limited series follows Elizabeth in the early 1950s as her dream of being a scientist is put on hold in a patriarchal society.

Charming performances and strong production values struggle to push through overwritten dialogue and ham-fisted plotting in Apple TV+’s mini-series “Lessons in Chemistry,” based on the hit 2022 novel by Bonnie Garmus. At its core, this is a story about how it is not predictable formulas that make up the building blocks of life but the chaotic random elements that define our journey. Trying to cram an overstuffed debut novel (and adding a bit more stuffing even) into eight episodes leads to a mini-series that often tells much more than it shows, allowing characters to become thematic and cultural mouthpieces more often than it should.

Food and science have been friendly bedfellows for decades. After all, bartenders are keen to study the art of mixology before they serve their first customer. New technology has completely revolutionized how we cook our food, with self-cleaning ovens, WiFi-enabled stovetops and air fryers present in many households. But science is all about the idea of change, the hypothesis being that bucking trends might lead to new discoveries from within. Enter “Lessons in Chemistry,” the new limited series from Apple TV+ that takes this concept and brings its streaming audience back to the 1960s with Academy Award-winner Brie Larson in the forefront.
Based on the bestselling novel of the same name by Bonnie Garmus, “Lessons in Chemistry” stars Larson as Elizabeth Zott, a chemist turned TV cooking show host. Zott’s trajectory from fired lab employee to taking a television gig to help housewives understand bold scientific subjects and apply...

For Elizabeth Zott (Brie Larson), the intrepid heroine of Apple TV+’s Lessons in Chemistry, perfection is the ultimate goal. By the time we meet her, she’s made the same lasagna dish 78 times — each time with subtle and meticulously documented tweaks, in pursuit of a recipe that can’t possibly be further improved upon.
As evidenced by his obvious delight as Calvin (Lewis Pullman) sinks his teeth into her latest effort, though, a dish doesn’t need to be perfect to be pleasurable. Neither does a TV series. Lessons in Chemistry is far from flawless; even those (like me) who’ve never read the Bonnie Garmus novel on which it’s based will be able to feel the seams where the source material and the adaptation do not quite mesh. Nevertheless, it’s worth tucking into, thanks to an endearing cast, witty dialogue and easily digestible themes.

Harry Styles Soundtracks Brie Larson’s 1950s Feminist Breakthrough in ‘Lessons in Chemistry’ Trailer
