‘Marvelous Mrs. Maisel’ Creators’ ‘étoile’ Gets Premiere Date, First Look From Prime Video
The creators of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel are ready to dance again.
Prime Video has set an April 24 premiere date for étoile (the French word for star), the latest series from Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino. The drama follows the dancers and artistic staff of two world-renowned ballet companies — one in New York, one in Paris — as they take on an ambitious plan to save their storied institutions: swapping their most talented stars. The eight-episode season will debut as a binge release.

Emmy-winning Maisel alum Luke Kirby and Charlotte Gainsbourg (The Pale Blue Eye) head the cast for étoile. Lou de Laage (The Innocents), Gideon Glick (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Maestro), David Alvarez (West Side Story), Ivan du Pontavice (Rupture), Ta?s Vinolo (The Show Must Go On), David Haig (Four Weddings and a Funeral) and Simon Callow (Outlander) also star; Yanic Truesdale (Gilmore Girls) has a recurring role.
Prime Video gave the show a two-season, straight-to-series order in 2023. étoile is the second ballet-centric series from Sherman-Palladino, who created the beloved (but short-lived) Bunheads for what was then ABC Family in 2012.
Amazon MGM Studios, where the Palladinos are based, produces étoile. Sherman-Palladino, Palladino and Dhana Rivera Gilbert executive produce. Scott Ellis is a co-EP. See more photos below.
