Exclusive: Apple Original Films’ Camp Fire drama The Lost Bus has rounded out its cast with the addition of Ashlie Atkinson (BlaKkKlansman) and Spencer Watson (Them).
Details as to their roles are under wraps. But they join an ensemble that also features Matthew McConaughey, America Ferrera and Yul Vazquez.

The story is told through the perspective of heroic bus driver Kevin McKay and schoolteacher Mary Ludwig, who helped navigate a bus full of children through a deadly wildfire, as the town of Paradise is caught in destruction and chaos.
Paul Greengrass is directing from a script by Brad Ingelsby. Jamie Lee Curtis’ Comet Pictures, Jason Blum’s Blumhouse, Ingelsby and Greg Goodman are producing, with Lizzie Johnson...

Downeast is the very downbeat tale of a cold case murder. Mikey (Spencer Watson) and Tommy (Greg Finley) are best of buddies: Tommy is on the verge of dating Mikey’s sister, Emma (Dylan Silver).
