The 23-year-old actress will star opposite Mike Colter in the series from acclaimed creators Robert and Michelle King (The Good Wife, Evil). Cupertino is described as a high-stakes legal procedural set in the world of tech and innovation, drawing its name from the heart of Silicon Valley. Details on Stiller’s character remain under wraps, but sources indicate she will play a key recurring figure in the ensemble cast.

This marks a significant television milestone for Stiller, who has built her career with appearances in projects including Hubie Halloween (2020), guest spots on HBO’s The Comeback, and recent off-Broadway work such as her debut in the dark comedy Dilaria.

She also appeared in season three of And Just Like That… and has credits in voice acting and smaller film roles. A Juilliard-trained performer, Stiller has focused on theater while stepping into more prominent screen opportunities.

The casting adds another layer to the Stiller family legacy in entertainment—Ben Stiller has long been involved in producing and directing, including the recent documentary Stiller & Meara: Nothing Is Lost on Apple TV+. Ella’s involvement in Cupertino represents her move into network television leading roles.

Production on Cupertino is expected to begin soon, with CBS eyeing a potential 2026-2027 premiere. The series joins the Kings’ portfolio of intelligent, character-driven dramas that often blend legal intrigue with contemporary issues.

Fans and industry insiders have expressed excitement over Stiller’s casting, viewing it as a natural progression for the young actress carving her own path beyond her famous lineage.
