Emmy Rossum Cast in 'The Crowded Room' Apple TV Plus Series - TVLine

Shameless vet Emmy Rossum is taking on a motherly new role: The actress has joined Tom Holland and Amanda Seyfried in the Apple TV+ anthology The Crowded Room, our sister site Deadline reports.

Written and executive-produced by Oscar winner Akiva Goldsman (A Beautiful Mind), the 10-episode drama explores inspirational stories of those who have struggled with mental illness and learned to live successfully with it. The first season, which is based on the biography The Minds of Billy Milligan by Daniel Keyes, will tell the story of Milligan (played by Holland), the first person ever acquitted of a crime because of Multiple Personality Disorder (aka Dissociative Identity Disorder).

Rossum — who stars in the upcoming Peacock limited series Angelyne — will play Candy, the mother of Holland’s character. (Because you’re probably wondering, Rossum is just 10 years older than Holland.)
