Apple has announced 'Lucky,' a new limited drama series starring Anya Taylor-Joy. 'Lucky' is based on the New York Times bestselling novel 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.
