New Apple TV+ and Hello Sunshine Show “Lucky” Gains Anya Taylor-Joy

Anya Taylor-Joy has plans — and not just as an actress. She will star in and executive produce Lucky, a new series for Apple TV+ from Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine and Apple Studios.

The series will be co-showrun, written, and executive produced by Jonathan Tropper, with Witherspoon as executive producer. The show is based on the novel Lucky written by Marissa Stapley and a Reese’s Book Club pick.

None of these three are strangers to Apple Studio. Hello Sunshine worked with Apple TV+ on The Morning Show, The Last Thing He Told Me, and Surface. Taylor-Joy previously worked with them on The Gorge, and Tropper’s Your Friends and Neighbors premieres on the streamer on April 11.

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.”

The show seems especially fitting for Hello Sunshine, which continues to focus on producing female-centric content.
