‘Ghostwriter’ on Apple TV+: Everything To Know About Apple’s ‘Ghostwriter’ Reboot

We’re a little less than two months away from the launch of Apple TV+ and there are plenty of reasons to be excited. Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, and Steve Carell in a high-stakes drama that pulls back the curtain on morning news (The Morning Show)? An epic futuristic drama starring noted water enthusiast Jason Momoa (See)? A new Peanuts story titled Snoopy in Space about… Snoopy (presumably) going to space? Sign. Me. Up.

Yesterday, Apple provided us with one more reason to embrace the avalanche of new TV headed our way: a Ghostwriter reboot!

Originally premiering on PBS in 1992, the memorable mystery series followed a group of intrepid teens from Brooklyn who solved neighborhood crimes and capers with the help of an invisible ghost named Ghostwriter. How close will Apple TV+’s Ghostwriter be to the original series? Here’s everything we know so far.

WHAT IS GHOSTWRITER ON APPLE TV+ ABOUT?

Written and directed by Luke Matheny (The Dangerous Book for Boys), here’s Apple’s synopsis for the show: “A reinvention of the beloved original series follows four kids who are brought together by a mysterious ghost in a neighborhood bookstore and must team up to release fictional characters from works of literature.”

Deadline reports that the kids must team up to solve a mystery surrounding the ghost’s unfinished business. “Armed with secret messages only they can see, the young heroes chase down the truth — and become friends in the process.”

WHEN IS THE GHOSTWRITER PREMIERE DATE?

Ghostwriter premieres Friday, November 1 on Apple TV+.

IS THERE A GHOSTWRITER TRAILER? WHO’S IN THE GHOSTWRITER CAST?

Apple has yet to release a trailer or cast information, but the series premieres in less than two months, so that info should be available sooner rather than later.

IS THE ORIGINAL GHOSTWRITER AVAILABLE TO WATCH ON NETFLIX, HULU, OR PRIME VIDEO?

That’s a negative, Ghost Rider, but original episodes can be found on YouTube.
