Tom Holland and Amanda Seyfried are joining forces for a new drama. “The Crowded Room” is headed to Apple TV+ this summer, and the first images, released on April 3, show Holland and Seyfried decked out in 1970s garb in the midst of a tense-looking interrogation. Season one tells the story of Danny Sullivan (Holland), a man arrested for his involvement in a shooting in New York City in 1979. The show follows his interrogation, explores his past, and eventually, culminates in a “life-altering revelation” for Sullivan, per a press release.

“The Crowded Room” is an anthology series that tells stories about people living successfully while dealing with mental illnesses, according to Deadline. The show was created by writer and producer Akiva Goldsman, known for his work on “A Beautiful Mind,” and Holland serves alongside Goldsman as an executive producer.

"The Crowded Room" Plot

“The Crowded Room” is reportedly inspired by the true story of Billy Milligan, who was arrested for raping three women in Ohio in 1975, per Collider. Milligan was later diagnosed with multiple personality disorder, and became the first person to be acquitted on the basis of that disorder.

The show is an adaption of Daniel Keyes’s 1981 novel “The Minds of Billy Milligan,” which is based on the case, though the Apple TV+ series alters most of the details, changing Milligan’s name to Danny Sullivan and changing his crime to a shooting. It follows Sullivan’s interrogation, interspersing that with flashbacks to his upbringing.
