TV enthusiasts will be treated to a lot of amazing TV series, which are coming from various genres including apocalypse shows and an adaptation of a popular animated series.

AceShowbiz - Having come a long way since his critically-acclaimed appearance on "Ally McBeal", Robert Downey Jr. returns to the small screen on "The Sympathizer". Showing his versatility, the "Iron Man" star is set to portray not just one, but multiple antagonist characters on the show, which is based on the 2015 Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of the same name by Viet Thanh Nguyen.

Described as a historical black comedy drama, "The Sympathizer" follows a half-French, half-Vietnamese communist spy during the final days of the Vietnam War and his resulting exile in the United States. The satire series will also star Hoa Xuande, Fred Nguyen Khan, Toan Le, Ky Duyen and Sandra Oh, joining Downey Jr., who also serves as executive producer. "The Sympathizer" will arrive on HBO sometime in 2024.
