Welcome, viewers, to Brie Larson’s first foray into streaming television with “Lessons in Chemistry.” The Oscar-winning star leads the Apple adaptation of the best-selling novel by Bonnie Garmus which the streaming service will debut this fall.

Here’s the logline from Apple: Set in the early 1950s, “Lessons in Chemistry” follows Elizabeth Zott (played by Larson), whose dream of being a scientist is put on hold in a patriarchal society. When Elizabeth finds herself fired from her lab, she accepts a job as a host on a TV cooking show, and sets out to teach a nation of overlooked housewives — and the men who are suddenly listening — a lot more than recipes.
