Mark Polish, the less prolific filmmaking twin of Michael Polish, has little nice to say about today’s youngsters in Murmur, which aims to be a Blair Witch for digital natives. Throwing a half-dozen annoying social-media producers into the forest with only their cell phones and a deeply dubious game they won’t stop playing, it might’ve looked like a cautionary fable if only it maintained any sort of distance from its protagonists. Instead, it’s wholly on board for screens-based storytelling and TikTok attention spans, the result being that most viewers not addicted to such stuff will find it insufferable from its first moments. Even setting such opinions aside, its value as an unscary horror pic is next to nil, and as screens-based mayhem goes, it ranks far below peers like Spree.

“The Mosquito Coast” is based on the best-selling 1981 novel by author Paul Theroux, uncle of the show’s star Justin Theroux (“The Leftovers”), who plays Allie Fox, an anti-establishment idealist who uproots his family on a dangerous quest through Mexico to flee the U.S. government. The ambitious action drama, already renewed for a second season by AppleTV+, was developed by Neil Cross (“Luther”) and author Tom Bissell, who also executive produce the series alongside Rupert Wyatt (who also directs the first two episodes) both Theroux men, Edward L. McDonnell, Alan Gasmer, Peter Jaysen and Bob Bookman.

Paul Theroux’s 1981 bestselling novel The Mosquito Coast shapes Apple TV+’ original series created and executive produced by Luther’s Neil Cross. Season 1 plays like an expanded prequel, introducing the anti-consumerism idealist and inventor Allie Fox (played by Theroux’s real-life nephew Justin Theroux) who with his family flees to Mexico on the run from the U.S. government – a plot thickener that is one of several that diverges from the novel and the 1986 Peter Weir-directed movie starring Harrison Ford.
Episode 2, titled “Foxes and Coyotes,” finds the family — played by Theroux, Melissa George as Margot, Logan Polish as Dina and Gabriel Bateman as Charlie — hiring a pair of coyotes to take them across the border to Mexico from Arizona. The plan ends in a bloody shootout and leaves the Foxes stranded in the desert.
The action and cliffhangers like that propel the seven-episode Season 1, which bowed at the end of April.

In the second episode of the Apple TV+ adaptation Mosquito Coast, Allie Fox (Justin Theroux) and his daughter, Dina (Logan Polish), briefly seek shelter in a homeless camp in California while on the run from the police. Allie, ever resourceful, teaches his daughter how to create a “shim” so she can pick the lock in his handcuffs. During his instructions on the maneuver, the idealist inventor — who has been living off the grid with his family while on the run from the U.S. government — opines about consumer capitalism.

You could be forgiven for thinking that there was some kind of insider trading going on when Justin Theroux was announced to play the lead in The Mosquito Coast, a seven-part Apple TV+ series based on a book written by his uncle: it’s a project, literally, with his name written all over it. But the 49-year-old actor, who has a few years on Harrison Ford from when he starred in Peter Weir’s 1986 adaptation of Paul Theroux’s novel, insists that it came to him just like any other opportunity. “It was really just the normal channels,” he shrugs.
Today, Theroux seems especially nonchalant, taking a Zoom call in his New York kitchen and looking disconcertingly like Super Mario with his black woolly hat and furry Magnum ’stache. “I heard about it, I tracked it, and I asked to read it,” he remembers. “I liked the script a lot,...

Justin Theroux is currently batting 1.000 at the Emmys, having gone 2-for-2 in the Outstanding Variety Special (Live) category as a producer on “Live in Front of a Studio Audience,” a pair of live specials recreating the iconic works of Norman Lear. But could this be the year Emmy voters finally show some leftover love for his work in front of the camera as well?
Theroux, who wowed audiences as the lead in HBO’s critically acclaimed drama “The Leftovers” from 2014 to 2017, has never been nominated for acting. He currently stars on the Apple TV+ series “The Mosquito Coast,” which was just renewed for a second season, and is based on the best-selling novel of the same name by Theroux’s uncle, Paul Theroux (who happens to be a delightful interview and is willing to poke fun at his nephew if you’ve got some time to spare).

Apple TV+’s “Mosquito Coast” series is an adaptation of the acclaimed 1981 novel by star Justin Theroux’s uncle, but Melissa George didn’t read the book to prepare for her part on the show, nor did she watch the film adaptation starring Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren. She did “a weird thing” instead.
“I spoke to a therapist as Margot until the third session, when they realized I was an actress,” George, who was joined by co-star Logan Polish, said Thursday during a discussion for TheWrap’s Emmys Screening Series. “Everyone laughs, but I’m telling you — it is very effective.”
George’s character is Margot Fox, the wife of Theroux’s character who, along with their two children, travels with him to Latin America as they flee the U.S. government. Polish plays her daughter, Dina.
“We go to talk to somebody when we need help for our life.

“She is constantly the voice of reason. She’s always grounding the audience and the show,” reveals Logan Polish about playing a more mature but still rebellious teenager on Apple TV Plus’ seven-episode drama series “The Mosquito Coast.” She shares, “I think it’s great to have that rock throughout the season, because everyone is so off their rockers. Ultimately though she stays because I think she likes to feel needed by her parents and that is some sort of baggage that she has.” Watch our exclusive video interview with Polish above.

Apple TV+’s “The Mosquito Coast” is the third project between Justin Theroux and casting director Victoria Thomas after “The Leftovers” and 2018’s “On the Basis of Sex,” and Thomas loves reconnecting with not just Theroux but any previously cast actor.
“They kind of become old friends in an old way. It’s kind of interesting to try to cast them at different points in their career and cast around them at different points in their career. I’ve been around a while and Justin’s been around a while so I remember his auditions from back in the day, so it’s kinda good that we’re both here and haven’t been kicked out of the business,” Thomas jokes to Gold Derby at our Meet the Experts: TV Casting Directors panel (watch the exclusive video interview above).
