Julia
Starring Sarah Lancashire and David Pierce, the upcoming series is inspired by Julia Child's extraordinary life and her show The French Chef, which essentially invented food television.
Based on 10 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, it received a 100% approval rating with an average rating of 8.9/10. Metacritic assigned a score of 72 out of 100 out of 11 reviews.
Paste's Amy Amatangelo reported that "Julia explores not just how pioneering Child was in showing cooking on TV, but how pioneering she was in television production in general. The series is billed as a comedy, and there are definitely funny moments—notably when people are literally on the floor assisting Julia in the filming of her show—but Julia explores not just how pioneering Child was in showing cooking on TV, but how pioneering she was in television production in general. In the end, the series will be decided by Lancashire's outstanding performance.

Tokyo Vice
Starring Hollywood’s favorites Ansel Elgort and Ken Watanabe, the upcoming series is an upcoming crime drama based on the 2009 book of the same name by Jake Adelstein that is set to premiere on April 7, 2022.
The series will follow a Western journalist working for a publication in Tokyo who takes on one of the city's most powerful crime bosses.
In 2013, a film adaptation of Tokyo Vice was announced, with Daniel Radcliffe set to play Adelstein and Anthony Mandler planned to direct. The concept was repurposed as a television series in June 2019, obtaining a 10-episode direct to series order from WarnerMedia for streaming on HBO Max. Ansel Elgort was set to executive produce the series, which was written by J. T. Rogers and directed by Destin Daniel Cretton.
Judging from its trailer, we’ll get to see exciting guns blazing in Tokyo’s neon-drenched and rainy ghettos.
