FIRST LOOK: Apple TV+ has unveiled Land of Women, a six-part dramedy starring Eva Longoria (Desperate Housewives) that will debut this summer.

Longoria, who is also an executive producer, heads the cast alongside Carmen Maura and Victoria Bazúa. Notably, the series was shot in both English and Spanish, and will be available to watch in each language.

In Land of Women, Longoria plays Gala, a New York empty nester whose life is turned upside down when her husband implicates the family in financial improprieties, forcing her to flee the city alongside her aging mother (Maura) and college-age daughter (Bazúa).

To escape the dangerous criminals to whom Gala’s now-vanished husband is indebted, the three women hide in the same charming wine town in northern Spain that Gala’s mother fled 50 years ago, vowing never to return. The women seek to start anew and hope their identities will remain unknown, but gossip in the small town quickly spreads, unraveling their deepest family secrets and truths.

Inspired by Sandra Barneda’s novel of the same name, Land of Women is created by Ramón Campos, Gema R Neira and Paula Fernández and is directed by Carlos Sedes.

From Apple Studios, the series is produced by Bambú Producciones. The series is executive produced by showrunner Campos, Teresa Fernández-Valdés, Ben Spector and Longoria via her production company UnbeliEVAble Entertainment.
