Apple TV is once again leaning into the idea that the best stories about Hollywood are the ones that absolutely hate it. At the 2026 Apple TV Press Day, the streamer unveiled a first look at Outcome, a dark comedy written and directed by Jonah Hill, and the early details suggest a glossy, self-aware spiral straight into fame’s most uncomfortable corners.
Set to premiere globally on April 10, 2026, Outcome stars Keanu Reeves as Reef Hawk, a universally beloved movie star whose carefully curated public image begins to collapse when he’s extorted with a mysterious video that threatens to end his career. Because this is a Jonah Hill project, the problem isn’t just the blackmail, it’s everything Reef has spent years pretending didn’t happen.
The first look frames Outcome as a celebrity crisis comedy with teeth. Reeves plays Reef as a man forced into emotional excavation, supported (and possibly enabled) by his inner circle: Cameron Diaz as lifelong best friend Kyle, Matt Bomer as fellow confidant Xander, and Hill himself as Ira, Reef’s crisis lawyer and emotional damage control specialist. Together, they form a kind of Hollywood Greek chorus, alternating between loyalty, denial, and brutal honesty as Reef tries to identify his blackmailer by revisiting every bridge he’s ever burned.
Hill’s fingerprints are all over the premise. The film promises a “spiritually cleansing” trip down memory lane, which in Hill-speak usually means uncomfortable self-reflection dressed up as humor, nostalgia, and just enough chaos to keep things from tipping into self-seriousness. Reef’s journey isn’t about proving innocence, it’s about confronting the version of himself he’s carefully buried beneath awards, premieres, and carefully worded apologies.
The ensemble cast only heightens the intrigue. Alongside Reeves, Diaz, Bomer, and Hill, Outcome features Martin Scorsese, Susan Lucci, Laverne Cox, David Spade, Atsuko Okatsuka, Roy Wood Jr., Kaia Gerber, Ivy Wolk, and more. That lineup alone suggests a film fully aware of its meta potential, especially with Scorsese entering the chat in a movie about legacy, image, and reckoning.
Produced under Hill’s Strong Baby banner alongside Apple Studios, Outcome continues Apple TV’s push into star-driven, auteur-led films that blur the line between satire and therapy session. Written by Hill and Ezra Woods, the project looks positioned to spark conversation not just about celebrity culture, but about who gets forgiven, who gets exposed, and what “making amends” actually looks like when the stakes are public and permanent.
Based on this first look, Outcome feels primed to be messy, introspective, and uncomfortably funny. For viewers who enjoy watching Hollywood eat its ownpolitely, with excellent lighting this is one Apple Original Film worth keeping on your radar.
