Dr Dre rumoured to star in Apple's first TV show 'Vital Signs'

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the rapper, producer, headphones company co-founder and actor could be coming to the small screen very soon in a show called "Vital Signs"

The six-part show will reportedly cast Dre at its center in a "semi-autobiographical" role.

And, rather than air on a traditional TV channel or on a service like Netflix or Hulu, it will be released via Apple's own premium, subscription-based Apple Music streaming service.

Paul Hunter is directing the show and, according to the Hollywood Reporter "Vital Signs" will also star Sam Rockwell and Mo McCrae.
