Tom Hanks stars in Finch on Apple TV+

Tom Hanks follows up last summer’s World War II blockbuster Greyhound with the post-apocalyptic Finch on Apple TV+.

Finch, previously titled Bios and directed by Miguel Sapochnik (Game of Thrones), was bought from Amblin Entertainment and the sci-fi movie is an award season contender.

Here's the official synopsis:

“In “Finch,” a man, a robot and a dog form an unlikely family in a powerful and moving adventure of one man’s quest to ensure that his beloved canine companion will be cared for after he’s gone. Tom Hanks stars as Finch, a robotics engineer and one of the few survivors of a cataclysmic solar event that has left the world a wasteland. But Finch, who has been living in an underground bunker for a decade, has built a world of his own that he shares with his dog, Goodyear. He creates a robot, played by Caleb Landry Jones, to watch over Goodyear when he no longer can. As the trio embarks on a perilous journey into a desolate American West, Finch strives to show his creation, who names himself Jeff, the joy and wonder of what it means to be alive. Their road trip is paved with both challenges and humor, as it’s as difficult for Finch to goad Jeff and Goodyear to get along as it is for him to manage the dangers of the new world.”

Although an extended free subscription to Apple TV+ (included with the purchase of an iPhone SE) has ended, there’s a free 6-month offer for PlayStation 5 (PS5) owners. Serendipitous ahead of Foundation and Invasion series this autumn.

Finch debuts on Apple TV+ on 5th November.
