Samuel L Jackson will be starring in a 6 episode limited series on Apple TV called The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey.

The show is based off of the novel of the same title by Walter Mosely. He will be helping bring his vision to life as a writer for the series as well as executive producing alongside Jackson, Diane Houslin, and David Levine and Eli Selden for Anonymous Content.

According to Deadline:

“In the series, produced by Apple Studios, Jackson stars as Ptolemy Grey, a 91-year-old man forgotten by his family, by his friends, by even himself. On the brink of sinking even deeper into a lonely dementia, Ptolemy experiences a seismic shift when he’s given the tremendous opportunity to briefly regain his memories, and uses this precious and fleeting lucidity to solve his nephew’s death and come to terms with his past.”
