Apple TV has set July 15 as the premiere date for the first two episodes of its television adaptation of Lucky, based on the book by Marissa Stapley. New episodes will arrive every Wednesday through August 19.
Lucky stars Anya Taylor-Joy, Drew Starkey, Aunjanue Ellis Taylor, Annette Bening, Timothy Olyphant, Clifton Collins, Jr. and William Fictner.
Taylor-Joy, who also serves as executive producer on the series, stars as con artist Lucky, who is forced to go on the run when a multi-million-dollar heist goes sideways. Pursued by both the FBI and a ruthless crime boss (Bening), Lucky must fight for her life — and a way out.
Olyphant will portray Lucky’s father John. Bening’s dangerous mob leader’s name is Priscilla.
Hailing from Apple Studios, Lucky is co-showrun, written and executive produced by Jonathan Tropper through his Tropper Ink banner and under his overall deal with Apple TV, alongside co-showrunner and executive producer Cassie Pappas. 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, is also executive producing.
