Actress Anya Taylor-Joy has signed on to star in and executive produce the Apple TV+ limited series, Lucky, based on the best-selling novel by the same name by Marissa Stapley. Apple TV posted on X: “Anya Taylor-Joy confronts a dark criminal past in this adaptation of the New York Times best-seller. Lucky — A new limited series coming to Apple TV+”

A press release reads: “In ‘Lucky,’ Taylor-Joy stars as a young woman who left behind the life of crime she was raised in years ago, but must now embrace her darker, criminal side one final time in a desperate attempt to escape her past.”

Producer Reese Witherspoon said in a press release: “Reese’s Book Club began with the goal of deepening connections — to the stories, to the storytellers and to the community we are building. It is incredibly rewarding to be able to amplify these female-centric stories and their authors, see our community connect with them, then see them take on a whole new life on screen. We couldn’t be more excited to partner with Apple TV+ and the incomparable Anya Taylor-Joy, plus our brilliant creator Jonathan Tropper and his wonderful co-showrunner Cassie Pappas, to bring this compelling series — based on Marissa Stapley’s fantastic novel — to audiences around the world.”
