WHEN LISA KUDROW WAS APPROACHED TO STAR IN A SERIALIZED Adaptation of the 1981 film Time Bandits for TV (July 24th on Apple TV+), she jumped at the chance to work with creators Taika Waititi, Jemaine Clement and Iain Morris.

- H. Alan Scott

Lisa Kudrow

"I love the way they tell stories and their sense of humor." In this version, Kudrow plays Penelope, the leader of a group of thieves on a time-traveling mission to save the world. Kudrow's part was originally written for a man, "so it took a long time before the scripts stopped having male pronouns." One thing Kudrow responded to was Penelope's false sense of confidence.
