- Servant's M. Night Shyamalan has been talking about his career and the influences that went into the Apple TV+ show.
Apple TV+ continues to promote its hit show Servant, this time trotting M. Night Shyamalan out for a 13-minute video in which he discusses his career as well as the influences that shaped the show.
Servant has cultivated itself quite the following and is now into its second season following a hugely popular debut outing. And with the show being equal parts fascinating and disturbing, it's great to hear how it came to be.
If this is enough to tickle your fancy you can check out the first two seasons of Servant so long as you have an Apple TV+ or Apple One subscription. The former will set you back $4.99 per month while the latter bundles multiple Apple subscription services into one monthly payment.
Like Amazon Prime, Netflix, and Hulu before it, Apple TV+ is a premium video streaming service featuring original content. In this case, surprise, surprise, it comes from the iPhone maker, which, with this endeavor, hopes to become a force in Hollywood by producing web-based series, films, and documentaries.
At launch, Apple TV+ offered a limited, but growing, content library. However, the first titles released have featured some of the biggest names in entertainment, including Reese Witherspoon, Jennifer Aniston, and many others. The service continues to expand its content library on a regular basis.
