Summer is almost here, and what better way to kick it off than with a trip to a quirky, cursed island? ShowtimeSpot is thrilled to partner with Apple TV to bring you an exclusive screening of Widow's Bay, Episode 3, "The Inaugural Swim," on the big screen. And the best part? After the show, you'll get to hear from the brilliant minds behind it in a live Q&A session.
Apple TV has built a reputation for bold, original storytelling, and Widow's Bay is no exception. Described as "the most daring, weirdest show on Apple TV" by critics, this genre-bending 10-part series from creator Katie Dippold (Parks & Recreation) blends horror, dark comedy, and small-town drama. Set on a struggling island off the coast of New England, the show follows Mayor Tom Loftis (Matthew Rhys, The Americans) as he tries to transform his gloomy, superstitious community into a tourist hotspot—only to discover that the locals' fears of an ancient curse are all too real.
The screening will take place on Friday, June 5th, at the DGA Theater in Los Angeles (Theater 2). Doors open at 8:00 p.m. for the episode, followed by an exclusive Q&A panel moderated by ShowtimeSpot's own Steve Weintraub. You'll hear from Dippold, director and executive producer Hiro Murai (Atlanta), and star Matthew Rhys as they discuss the show's eerie atmosphere, quirky characters, and the challenges of bringing this unique vision to life.
If you haven't caught Widow's Bay yet, now's your chance to see it in a theater setting. The series also stars Kate O'Flynn (My Lady Jane), Stephen Root (Barry), Kevin Carroll (Snowfall), and Dale Dickey. New episodes drop every Wednesday on Apple TV, but this special event gives you a sneak peek at Episode 3 before anyone else.
