Joe Otterson TV Reporter Marc Maron has been cast alongside Owen Wilson in an upcoming untitled golf comedy series at Apple TV+, Variety has learned.
The series was originally announced in March with Wilson in the lead role. Peter Dager is also set to star in the show. Wilson stars as Pryce Cahill, described as “an over-the-hill, ex-pro golfer whose career was derailed prematurely 20 years ago.
After he gets fired from his job at an Indiana sporting goods store and his wife walks out on him, Pryce hedges his bets entirely on a troubled 17-year-old golf phenom (Dager).” Maron will star as Mitts, Pryce’s best friend and former caddy.
Apple has given the show a 10-episode order. Maron’s past TV starring roles include the critically-acclaimed series “GLOW” at Netflix and his self-titled series “Maron,” which ran for four seasons on IFC.
