    Eugene Levy is packing his bags.

    The Emmy Award winner and star of Schitt's Creek and a slew of other beloved films has found his next gig in The Reluctant Traveler. The Apple TV+ travel series will see Levy explore "remarkable hotels and the places and cultures surrounding them" across the world, including Costa Rica, Finland, Italy, Japan, Maldives, Portugal, South Africa, and the United States. 

    "Self-confessedly not your typical travel show host - he’s not usually adventurous or well-versed in globe-trotting, Levy agrees the time is finally right for him to broaden his horizons," reads the official synopsis. "Levy packs his suitcase with some trepidation but hopes his experiences might lead to a whole new chapter in life, even if it means confronting some of his long-held fears."

    The eight-episode series is executive produced by Levy alongside National Geographic's David Brindley. 

    The Reluctant Traveler premieres on Apple TV+ February 24, 2023.
