The 2022 Bonnie Garmus best-seller, ‘Lessons in Chemistry,’ gets a television adaptation courtesy of Apple TV+’s new limited series of the same name.

Starring Academy Award winner Brie Larson, the 1950s-set series – which also boasts Larson as an executive producer – tells the story of a female scientist whose dream of dominating her field is constantly challenged by the patriarchal society she lives in. To cunningly combat the opposition, she accepts a job as host of a TV cooking show and ultimately “slides the knife” in secretly.

Also starring Aja Naomi King, Kevin Sussman, Patrick Walker, Lewis Pullman, Stephanie Koenig, and Thomas Mann, ‘Lessons’ premieres October 13.
