The project follows Heder's 'CODA,' which won Apple its first Best Picture Oscar, suggesting the streamer is again positioning disability-focused storytelling as a potential awards contender. The emphasis on casting disabled actors in large numbers could also signal a broader push toward more authentic representation in major studio productions.
