Production has officially begun on the fifth season of The Morning Show. Reese Witherspoon shared a behind-the-scenes clip on Instagram, marking the first day of filming. The Apple TV+ series was renewed for another run ahead of its fourth season's premiere in September 2025.
Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston will return as Alexandra 'Alex' Levy and Bradley Jackson. In the clip, both actresses take their seats behind the show's iconic news desk, announcing, 'This is Season 5, and we're back.' They share a warm embrace, with Aniston playfully slapping Witherspoon's backside as filming kicks off.
