Trailer for Newlyweds puts Jamie Lee Curtis in a multicam sitcom
Curtis will trade the grit of The Bear for the gloss of NBC later this month.
Jamie Lee Curtis, known for her TV appearances in recent years including The Bear, Scarpetta, and Star Trek: Section 31, has taken on a new role in the upcoming multicam sitcom Newlyweds. She is not only credited as a "very special guest star" but also co-created the series and serves as its executive producer. In the trailer, Curtis is prominently featured alongside Téa Leoni and Tim Daly, the latter of whom plays her husband James.
The series centers around Jeanie, played by Téa Leoni, a free-spirited woman, and James, portrayed by Tim Daly, a buttoned-up professor, who marry hastily following a rapid courtship. James is immediately smitten with Jeanie but soon discovers that loving her involves embracing her expansive and eccentric circle of friends and family, as well as his counterpart experiencing the same. Other cast members include Emma Meisel and Ignacio Diaz-Silverio, who are likely to play Jeanie's children, alongside Al Madrigal.
Newlyweds will premiere on NBC on October 23 at 8:30 pm, with the episode also airing on Peacock.
