Tuesday, July 21, 2020 at 8:20AM
It's not often that an app becomes a TV show. Meditation app Calm partners with WarnerMedia and Nutopia to help the HBO Max's subscribers relax, which is much-needed in the age of the COVID-19 pandemic. They will produce a 10-episode series based on its popular Sleep Stories feature. A World of Calm will have a host of big stars narrating the 30-minute episodes, including Mahershala Ali, Idris Elba, Oscar Isaac, Nicole Kidman, Zoë Kravitz, Lucy Liu, Cillian Murphy, and Keanu Reeves. The series is expected to combine "mesmeric imagery" with plots designed to help, well, calm its viewers.
A World of Calm will be HBO Max's first entry into the health and wellness programming. It isn't known yet when the show will debut on the streaming service. You can check out one of the Sleep Stories that Calm offers above.
