Christian Bale plays the lonely monster who asks a doctor to create a companion for him, bringing a young woman – known as “The Bride” and played by Jessie Buckley – back to life.

ABC has confirmed that both 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Nashville will be back for the 2026-27 television season. This means 9-1-1 will reach its tenth season, and 9-1-1: Nashville will be renewed for a second. The decision comes as both shows have been performing well for the network, consistently ranking among the top 10 dramas in key viewing demographics (ages 18-49). 9-1-1: Nashville has been particularly successful, becoming the No. 1 new drama in that same demographic, so the renewal isn’t unexpected.

Jurgensen has been nominated for his first Oscar and first worked with Anderson in 2014 as an assistant editor on Inherent Vice. He’s since become a frequent collaborator, also editing Phantom Thread and Licorice Pizza.
