"Sometimes giving folks a new dream to dream can make all the difference," says actor and producer Billy Crudup as his character Jack in the new Apple TV+ show, "Hello Tomorrow!" The 10-episode dramedy is set in a retro-futuristic world full of robots doing human tasks and centers around Jack and his company of traveling salespeople hawking lunar timeshares in a 1950s era where humans long for a better tomorrow and are willing to suspend their disbelief to find it.
It's clear Crudup's character Jack is conflicted about the work he does, but somewhat impossibly, really believes in what he's actually selling — optimism. "The hope that he is providing to people will at least be enough to get them through the day," Crudup told me on "Salon Talks."
