Check out this month’s highlights below and then keep scrolling to take a look at some of the other titles landing on Apple TV+ this September.
Please note: This list is correct at the time of writing but the Apple TV schedule may be subject to change.
September 8
The Changeling – Season 1
Based on the novel of the same name by Victor LaVelle, this eight-part series takes place in an alternate New York City. The show focuses on a man named Apollo (LaKeith Stanfield) who traverses through a magical world in search of his abducted son and missing wife. What happened to them? We have no idea but as the first three episodes land on this date, we hope to get an answer to some of the show’s mysterious happenings.
Here is the official synopsis:
“A fairy tale for grown-ups. A horror story, a parenthood fable and a perilous odyssey through a New York City you didn’t know existed.”
September 13
The Morning Show – Season 3
The Morning Show may be a fictional drama series but with its behind the scenes examination of an American morning television show, we’re sure it’s not too far removed from the inner workings of the news shows that many of us tune into while eating our breakfast cereals.
Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon return for the third season, alongside newcomer Jon Hamm, who makes his debut on the show as Paul Marks, a “tech titan” looking to take over the UBA (United Broadcast Association). According to early plot details, his presence causes shifting loyalties among the show’s characters as they are forced to confront their own ethics.
September 20
The Super Models – Limited Series
This four-episode documentary covers the illustrious careers of supermodels Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Linda Evangelista, and Christy Turlington during the height of their fame in the 80s and 90s.
Here’s an extract from Apple’s press statement:
“Already forces in their own right, the gravitas they achieved by coming together transcended the industry itself. Their prestige was so extraordinary that it enabled the four to supersede the brands they showcased, making the names Naomi, Cindy, Linda and Christy as prominent as the designers who styled them.
Today, the four supermodels remain on the frontlines of culture through activism, philanthropy and business prowess. As the fashion industry continues to redefine itself – and women’s roles within it – this is the ultimate story of power and how four women came together to claim it, paving the way for those to follow.”

Still Up – Season 1
Insomnia is an intolerable sleep disorder that blights many of us. But for Lisa (Antonia Thomas) and Danny (Craig Roberts), the two insomniacs at the heart of this British comedy series, it could be the catalyst for romance.
Here’s the official synopsis:
“Still Up is an almost romantic comedy set in the after-hours world of insomniacs Danny, the socially anxious yet gifted journalist, and Lisa. Lisa, an impulsive and free-spirited aspiring illustrator whose questions over her daughter’s future start keeping her up at night. The pair have no secrets, except their feelings for each other, and while the world sleeps they spend their long nights talking despite never meeting.”

Flora and Son (2023)
Irish director John Carney has a fascination with music and song, as evidenced by his previous movies – Once, Begin Again, and Sing Street. His latest movie follows a similar beat, telling the story of Flora (Eva Hewson), a struggling single mom, who sees music as a way to keep her rebellious son Max (Orén Kinlan) out of trouble.
This touching tale has scored highly with critics so is defintely worth a look, be that on Apple’s streaming service or at the cinema, when it gets a big screen release a week before it’s streaming debut.
Here’s the synopsis:
“Single mum Flora (Eve Hewson) is at a loss about what to do with her rebellious teenage son, Max (Orén Kinlan). Encouraged by the police to find Max a hobby, Flora tries to occupy him with a beat-up acoustic guitar. With the help of a washed-up LA musician (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), Flora and Max discover the transformative power of music.
From the musical mind of John Carney, “Flora and Son” explores the bond between a mother and son on a journey toward a new harmony.”
