Tony Award nominee Tom Francis (“Sunset Blvd.,” “Jay Kelly,” “You”) will have a recurring role opposite Richard Gere in “The Off Weeks,” Apple TV‘s eight-episode limited series, reports Deadline. He’ll play Jonathan’s (Gere) son.

It stars and is executive produced by Ben Stiller (who plays “Gus”) and Jessica Chastain (who plays “Stella,” Gus’ wife), from director Michael Showalter, showrunner Alissa Nutting and Apple Studios.

Here’s how the series is described: When divorce throws writing professor Gus Adler’s life into chaos, he struggles to hold things together during “on weeks” when he has custody of his kids. But in his “off weeks,” he’s falling dangerously in love with Stella West, a mysterious woman whose arrival puts Gus’ on-week duties and off-week ambitions on a fatal collision course.

The previously announced cast also includes series regulars Arian Moayed, Annaleigh Ashford, John Cho, Zoe Winters, Tony Macht, Ravi V. Patel, and Will Yung Lee.
