Time Bandits premiered July 24. Apple TV Plus called it “an unpredictable journey through time and space with a ragtag group of thieves and their newest recruit: an 11-year-old history buff named Kevin. Together, they set out on a thrilling quest to save the boy’s parents — and the world.”
Terry Gilliam directed the 1981 Time Bandits movie.
The series is produced by Paramount Television Studios, Anonymous Content’s AC Studios and MRC.
