Prolific producer Ridley Scott and his Scott Free Productions company signed a multi-year, first-look TV deal with Apple. They will be developing new projects for Apple TV+. This partnership won't be Scott's first time working with the tech giant. He once directed the famed "1984" commercial for the company's first Macintosh computer. This new Apple deal ends his years-long overall deal with CBS TV Studios. According to The Hollywood Reporter's sources, the Apple deal is valued in the high-seven-figure range.
Scott Free has developed a lot of renowned TV shows, including CBS' The Good Wife, CBS All Access spinoff The Good Fight, Amazon's The Man in the High Castle, and AMC's The Terror. They've also done films like Top Gun, Gladiator, and The Martian.
