Apple TV+ has revealed its newest addition to 2023’s premiere calendar, Dear Edward, a forthcoming drama based on Ann Napolitano’s novel of the same name. 

Napolitano’s book was inspired by the actual-life events of Afriqiyah Airways Flight 771, which crashed in 2010, killing everybody in the plane except for nine-year-old Ruben V. Assouw. The show joins other novel-to-TV projects adaptations on Apple TV+, such as Pachinko, Slow Horses, Roar, Shining Girls, and Under the Banner of Heaven

In February 2022, the streaming platform offered a green light for ten episodes of Dear Edward season one. The show began filming in March 2022 at Central Park, New York City, and will debut in February 2023.
