Meet ‘Now Apocalypse’ Cast Before Starz Series Premiere
With so many fan-favorite actors in Starz’s new half-hour comedy, “Now Apocalypse,” everyone’s going to want to carve out 30 minutes tonight to watch the show’s series premiere.
Created by Gregg Araki, the show “explores identity, sexuality and artistry while navigating the strange and oftentimes bewildering city of Los Angeles,” the synopsis explains. “Between sexual and romantic dating-app adventures, Ulysses [Avan Jogia] grows increasingly troubled as foreboding premonitory dreams make him wonder if some kind of dark and monstrous conspiracy is going on, or if he is just smoking too much weed.”
