It’s the dawn of a new era in “The Morning Show” Season 4. The network formerly known as UBA (and UBA+, for the real ones who remember) moves under new ownership, promising seismic change for Alex Levy (Jennifer Aniston), Bradley Jackson (Reese Witherspoon), and everyone around them — that is, if they survive the shift.
The Season 4 trailer shows UBA — now UBN after merging with NBN — promising the public a “different culture” and “feminist utopia,” with the cooperation and leadership of one Celine Dumont (Marion Cotillard). At the same time, Bradley grapples with the disgrace of her Season 3 actions (hiding her brother’s role in the January 6 insurrection) while investigating a chemical plant leak covered up by UBA, enlisting Chip (Mark Duplass) to help her. Tensions rise between Cory (Billy Crudup) and Stella (Greta Lee), Alex and Mia (Karen Pittman), and just about everyone else in the trailer for a star-studded season that includes Jon Hamm, Nestor Carbonell, Aaron Pierre, William Jackson Harper and Boyd Holbrook, and Jeremy Irons.
