Widow's Bay

Matthew Rhys in Widow’s Bay.

Matthew Rhys does psychological tension like no one else. If you’ve seen The Beast in Me or Behind Her Eyes, you know what I’m talking about. His turn as Mayor Tom Loftis in the new Apple TV+ comedy-horror Widow’s Bay is no exception. Set in a Wi-Fi-less New England town—a scary thought in itself—the series sees Loftis, a skeptic determined to modernize his municipality, grappling with residents who insist the place is cursed. (Spoiler: it is). —Carolina de Armas
