Apple TV+ has added eight new cast members to “Prodigies,” the streamer’s upcoming romantic comedy series created by Will Sharpe, and starring Sharpe opposite Ayo Edebiri.

Joining “Prodigies” are: Tobias Menzies (“F1: The Movie,” “You Hurt My Feelings,” “The Crown”), Sophia Di Martino (“Loki,” “Flowers”), Andrene Ward-Hammond (“Your Honor,” “English Teacher”), Yumi Asō (“Perfect Days,” “Angel Flight: Kokusai Reikyu Sokanshi”), Reece Shearsmith (“Inside No. 9,” “The League of Gentlemen”), Nabhaan Rizwan (“Kaos,” “In Camera”), Meera Syal (“Roar,” “The Wheel of Time”) and Lolly Adefope (“The Franchise,” “Ghosts”).

The new cast members join Rina Sawayama, the pop singer previously announced to be recurring in the role of Hana, Ren’s sister.

“Prodigies” follows a couple named Didi (Edebiri) and Ren (Sharpe), who are described in the official logline as “two ex-child prodigies who have been together since they were children. Now in their early 30s, they are starting to question whether their very ordinary existence is living up to the extraordinary promise of their childhood. Inevitably, they find themselves asking the same questions of their relationship. As individual hopes and needs feed into and conflict with their shared lives, the series challenges the fallacy at the heart of romantic storytelling — that the tale is over when the heroes get together. In life, surely, that is just the beginning?”
