Apple TV+ has revealed plans for an upcoming series titled Lucky, featuring notable talents including Anya Taylor-Joy.
Lucky originates from Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine production company
Lucky will be a limited series based on the New York Times bestselling book of the same title, which was selected by Reese’s Book Club.
Anya Taylor-Joy will lead the cast, marking her first major television role since her breakout performance in The Queen’s Gambit on Netflix in 2020. Since then, she has primarily focused on films, including The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Dune: Part Two, and The Menu, along with a guest role in Peaky Blinders.
Here’s the premise of the new Apple TV+ show:
In “Lucky,” Taylor-Joy portrays a young woman who has escaped her criminal upbringing but is forced to confront her past one last time, tapping into her darker side in a desperate bid for freedom.
As expected, since Lucky was a selection from Reese’s Book Club, the series is being produced by the frequently collaborating Hello Sunshine. Prior Apple projects from this team include The Morning Show, The Last Thing He Told Me, and Surface.
Anya Taylor-Joy will also make her Apple TV+ debut in the forthcoming film The Gorge, co-starring with Miles Teller.
Recently, Apple TV+ has experienced its strongest few months yet, and Lucky seems poised to complement the platform’s lineup perfectly. While no release date has been announced, there’s hope it will make it to screens in 2025.
