Attention, Kim Wexler hive: Apple TV+ dropped a first look at Vince Gilligan's highly-anticipated new show, a sci-fi drama that reunites him with his *Better Call Saul* star Rhea Seehorn.

Titled *Pluribus*, the nine-episode series, described as genre-bending, centers on the most miserable person on Earth, tasked to save the world from happiness, per the enigmatic logline. A concerned Seehorn takes a phone call in the first look photo (above); Apple TV+ also released a clip, titled "Happiness is Contagious," that takes cues from 2015 Ariana Grande: a woman licks a donut, then places it into a box.

The series, premiering Nov. 7, has already been picked up for a second season. Starring alongside Seehorn are Karolina Wydra and Carlos-Manuel Vesga, as well as guest stars Miriam Shor and Samba Schutte.**

Gilligan executive produces alongside his former *Breaking Bad *and *Better Call Saul* collaborators Gordon Smith, Alison Tatlock, Diane Mercer, and Allyce Ozarski, as well as Jeff Frost, Jenn Carroll, and Trina Siopy.

Gilligan last collaborated with Seehorn on *Better Call Saul,* the acclaimed AMC prequel series to *Breaking Bad *that chronicled the transformation of Bob Odenkirk's attorney Jimmy McGill to the crooked Saul Goodman. Seehorn's turn on the show, as fellow lawyer Kim Wexler, earned her two Emmy nominations throughout its six-season run between 2015 and 2022.**

Gilligan told Deadline earlier this year that he created the show specifically for Seehorn, teasing her character as "very different" from Kim Wexler. "She plays someone who’s trying very hard to be good," he teased. "She’s a bit of a damaged hero but she’s a hero nonetheless. It’s just a pleasure to work with her because she’s just the best."**

In the same interview, Seehorn called the series "thought-provoking" and at times "upsetting," noting it was also "so, so funny." She added, "It really swings for the fences."

*Pluribus* debuts with two episodes on Nov. 7, followed by new episodes every Friday through Dec. 26. Check out the first look image and teaser above.
