Plot Synopsis

Created and executive produced by Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupnitsky, JURY DUTY is a half-hour docu-style comedy series that reveals the inner workings of an American jury trial through the eyes of one particular juror, Ronald Gladden. What Gladden doesn't know is that the entire case is fake, everyone except him is an actor, including James Marsden, and everything that happens -- inside the courtroom and out -- is carefully planned.

"What interested me was the challenge of creating a hero's journey for someone who has no idea the world around him was completely manufactured," said James Marsden, "and whether or not this high wire act could lead him to unite this family of wonderful weirdos and in the process become an inspiring leader for us all under the process of serving Jury Duty."

Gladden, a solar contractor from San Diego, CA, is completely unaware this is not an official jury duty summons. Marsden stars as an alternate version of himself alongside an ensemble cast of comedic actors: Alan Barinholtz, Susan Berger, Cassandra Blair, David Brown, Kirk Fox, Ross Kimball, Pramode Kumar, Trisha LaFache, Mekki Leeper, Brandon Loeser, Edy Modica, Rashida "Sheedz" Olayiwola, Kerry O'Neill, Whitney Rice, Maria Russell, Ishmel Sahid, Ben Seaward, Ron Song, and Evan Williams.

JURY DUTY premiered on Friday, April 7, 2023 on Amazon Freevee, as the streaming service released the first four episodes. Two new installments dropped each Friday through April 21.
