Apple TV+ announces "Lucky," new limited series starring SAG and Golden Globe Award winner Anya Taylor-Joy, executive produced by Reese Witherspoon and created by Jonathan Tropper

New series produced by Hello Sunshine is based on the New York Times bestselling novel and Reese's Book Club pick of the same name

Apple TV+ will expand its award-winning original series lineup with "Lucky," a new limited drama set to star Golden Globe Award winner, SAG Award winner and Emmy Award nominee Anya Taylor-Joy ("The Queen's Gambit," "The Menu," "Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga," and upcoming "The Gorge" and "Sacrifice"), who will also serve as executive producer. "Lucky" is based on the New York Times bestselling novel and Reese's Book Club pick of the same name by Marissa Stapley.

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.

"Reese's Book Club began with the goal of deepening connections - to the stories, to the storytellers and to the community we are building," said Reese Witherspoon. "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."

"Hello Sunshine continues to do a fantastic job of championing women's voices and I'm thrilled to be joining the team alongside Jonathan, Cassie and Apple TV+ to bring 'Lucky' to life," said star and executive producer Anya Taylor-Joy.

Hailing from Apple Studios, "Lucky" will be co-showrun, written and executive produced by Jonathan Tropper (upcoming "Your Friends & Neighbors," "See," "The Adam Project") through his Tropper Ink banner and under his overall deal with Apple TV+, alongside Cassie Pappas ("Silo," "Griselda"). The series will be executive produced by Reese Witherspoon and Lauren Neustadter for Hello Sunshine, a part of Candle Media. Taylor-Joy will executive produce through her production banner, LadyKiller.

"Lucky" is the latest collaboration between Apple TV+ and Hello Sunshine, adding to a lineup that includes the Emmy Award-winning series "The Morning Show," which just wrapped production on its fourth season; the hit series "The Last Thing He Told Me," which recently began production on its second season; and "Surface," set to release its second season in 2025. Additionally, Apple recently teamed up with Taylor-Joy for the upcoming high-action, genre-bending Apple Original Film, "The Gorge."

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. After its launch on November 1, 2019, Apple TV+ became the first all-original streaming service to launch around the world, and has premiered more original hits and received more award recognitions faster than any other streaming service in its debut. To date, Apple Original films, documentaries and series have earned 526 wins and 2,374 award nominations and counting, including multi-Emmy Award-winning comedy "Ted Lasso" and historic Oscar Best Picture winner "CODA."
