'The Changeling' takes its time. It’s all about the planting; a hint is dropped and then, three or four episodes later, we get the story behind it, as Emma (Clark Backo) Apollo (LaKeith Stanfield) discover the joys and terrors of raising a child in the wilderness.

No, this one goes further. Apple TV+’s eight-part adaptation of the 2017 Victor LaValle fairy tale actually feels like it’s had some sleepless nights itself.
The star is LaKeith Stanfield, who also executive-produced. He plays Apollo, a rare-books dealer raised from age four by his mother Lillian . Apollo’s father ditched the family suddenly one day, or so Apollo has been told. The courtship between Apollo and his future wife, librarian Emmy , feels like the best kind of fate, with a healthy child in the wings.Getting there, however, means trouble.

He’s not a routinely heroic protagonist, but the story, both in novel form and in these eight parts, is less about heroes and foes and freight-train velocity, and more about “Underground Railroad” mystery. . This one, borrowing from the Greeks, Shakespeare’s “Midsummer Night’s Dream” and plenty more, takes its time.
