Apple has just ordered its first two original scripted series, Variety reports. The first is the Steven Spielberg anthology series Amazing Stories. The second is a currently untitled drama about a network morning show, which will star Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston.

媒体Variety报道，苹果刚刚决定开拍两部巨制：史蒂文·斯皮尔伯格(Steven Spielberg）的《惊异传奇》（Amazing Stories），和一部尚未取名的晨间网络剧，由瑞茜·威瑟斯彭（Reese Witherspoon）和詹妮弗·安妮斯顿（Jennifer Aniston）主演。

cnn reporter Brian Stelter's book Top of the Morning: Inside the Cutthroat World of Morning TV will serve as research material and background for the show, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The series, which already has a two-season order from Apple, will be written and produced by Jay Carson (House of Cards), with both Witherspoon and Aniston executive producing.

据《好莱坞报道》报道，cnn记者布莱恩·斯达勒（Brian Stelter）的书《晨间要事：晨间节目的残酷世界》（Top of the Morning: Inside the Cutthroat World of Morning TV）将作为苹果晨间网络剧的取材来源。苹果已经预定拍摄两季，编剧为杰森·卡伊（Jay Carson ），监制为威瑟斯彭和安妮斯顿。

Apple's other scripted series, Amazing Stories, is a revival¹ of the Spielberg anthology show from the late 1980s. The revival reportedly has a budget of $5 million per episode, with Hannibal’s Bryan Fuller serving as showrunner.

苹果的另一原创剧集《惊异故事》，是斯皮尔伯格在上世纪八十年代末某剧集的更迭版，新剧每集预算为500万美元，制片人为《汉尼拔》制作人布莱恩·福勒（Bryan Fuller）。

The two shows will help kick off Apple’s reported plan to spend $1 billion on original content over the next year. Last year, the company launched its first original unscripted shows, Planet of the Apps and Carpool Karaoke, to a lackluster critical response. But those appear to have been experiments rather that indicators² of where the company ultimately wants to go. The real battleground is going to be with scripted television shows, and in order to compete with streaming companies like Netflix and Hulu — both of which won Emmys this year — Apple will need to prove it's taking its TV aspirations³ seriously.

据说，苹果将在明年往两项原创制作中投入十亿美元。去年，苹果发布了原创作品《应用星球》（Planet of the Apps ）和《顺风车卡拉OK》(Carpool Karaoke)，反响轰动。但这只是苹果进军电视业、与流视频大佬奈飞和Hulu竞争的试验品，远非终点。今年奈飞和Hulu均获得艾美奖。苹果需要证明，自己进军电视业的欲望不是随便说说的的。

Premiere dates for Amazing Stories and the news network drama have yet to be announced.

惊异故事》首集播出时间和晨间网络剧的消息尚未官宣。
