Jessica Chastain plays the titular “Savant” character and goes undercover in online hate groups with the goal of stopping domestic terrorism before it happens. As seen in the trailer, this leads to potential harm not only to Chastain’s character, but also her family. Do you plan to watch The Savant when it hits Apple TV+? Let us know in the comments. Apple TV+ is available for $12.99 per month and features hit TV shows and movies like Ted Lasso, Severance, The Morning Show, Silo, and Shrinking.
She anonymously infiltrates hate groups, uses her skills to suss out men who pose a real threat, and works with the FBI to arrest them before they can act out. The A.V. Club ‘s review, which is now on hold, dubbed the show “timely” and “urgent.” Without getting into any further details or spoilers that are still under embargo, Jodi’s mental health and family life are impacted by her job in ways we’ve seen before on Homeland and 24 , so The Savant is pretty standard in that sense.
