Rhea Seehorn is heading to Apple TV+ for her second Originals project, joining the cast of 'Running', a new film from director Gavin O’Connor. Apple TV confirmed the casting on social media, marking Seehorn's move into her first feature-length collaboration with the streaming service after rising to fame as Kim Wexler on Better Call Saul.

Running stars Spike Fearn as a homeless high school running prodigy chasing greatness while outrunning his past. Writer Bill Dubuque, who teamed with O’Connor on The Accountant 2, penned the script. Seehorn adds star power to a cast that already includes Brian Tyree Henry, who joined the project last month for his third Apple collaboration.

Henry earned an Academy Award nomination for Causeway and an Emmy nod for Dope Thief. With no release date announced yet, Apple appears to be stacking prestige talent for Running as it continues expanding its Originals slate at $12.99 a month.
