Apple TV on Wednesday unveiled the trailer for “Lucky,” the pulse-pounding new limited series starring and executive produced by Golden Globe Award winner, SAG Award winner and Emmy Award nominee Anya Taylor-Joy. Featuring a star-studded ensemble cast that also includes Annette Bening, Timothy Olyphant, Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor, Drew Starkey, Clifton Collins Jr., and William Fichtner, “Lucky” will make its global debut on Apple TV with the first two episodes on Wednesday, July 15, followed by new episodes every Wednesday through August 19.
“Lucky” is based on the New York Times bestselling novel and Reese’s Book Club pick of the same name by Marissa Stapley. When a multimillion-dollar heist goes sideways, con artist Lucky (Taylor-Joy) is forced to go on the run. Pursued by both the FBI and a ruthless crime boss, Lucky must fight for her life — and a way out.
Hailing from Apple Studios and Hello Sunshine, “Lucky” is created, co-showrun, written and executive produced by Jonathan Tropper through his Tropper Ink banner and under his overall deal with Apple TV. Executive producer Cassie Pappas serves as co-showrunner alongside Tropper. The series is executive produced by Reese Witherspoon and Lauren Neustadter for Hello Sunshine. Taylor-Joy executive produces through her production banner, LadyKiller. Jonathan van Tulleken, who directed the pilot, also executive produces.
In addition to “Lucky,” Apple Originals produced by Hello Sunshine include Emmy Award, SAG Award and Critics Choice Award-winning series “The Morning Show,” starring Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston; “The Last Thing He Told Me,” starring Jennifer Garner; “Truth Be Told,” starring Octavia Spencer; and the psychological thriller “Surface,” starring Gugu Mbatha-Raw.
Apple TV offers premium, compelling drama and comedy series, feature films, groundbreaking documentaries, and kids and family entertainment, and is available to watch across all of a user’s favorite screens.
