Apple TV+ has greenlighted Lucky, a limited series starring Anya Taylor-Joy who also executive produces alongside Reese Witherspoon as well as Jonathan Tropper (Apple TV+’s See) who created the Hello Sunshine-produced series based on Marissa Stapley’s bestselling novel and Reese’s Book Club pick of the same name.

Lucky centers on a young woman (Taylor-Joy) 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.

This marks Taylor-Joy’s first TV project since another limited series based on a novel, Netflix’s 2020 The Queen’s Gambit, which earned her an Emmy nomination and Golden Globe and SAG Awards. She had been focused on features since with The Menu, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga and the upcoming The Gorge for Apple TV+ and Sacrifice.

Lucky, which Tropper is co-showrunning alongside Cassie Pappas (Apple TV+’s Silo), has been eying a spring 2025 start while awaiting a formal order since the summer. Under his overall deal with Apple TV+, Tropper also is creator/executive producer of the streamer’s upcoming Jon Hamm drama series Your Friends and Neighbors, which recently received a very early Season 2 renewal.

“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,” Taylor-Joy said.

This marks the latest collaboration between Apple TV+ and Hello Sunshine, joining “The Morning Show,” which just wrapped production on its fourth season; t“The Last Thing He Told Me,” which recently began production on its second season; and “Surface,” set to release its second season in 2025.

“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,” Witherspoon said. “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.”

Hailing from Apple Studios, Lucky will be co-showrun, written and executive produced by Tropper through his Tropper Ink banner and under his overall deal with Apple TV+, alongside Pappas. The series will be executive produced by Witherspoon and Lauren Neustadter for Hello Sunshine, a part of Candle Media. Taylor-Joy, will executive produce through her production banner Ladykiller.

Also recently seen in Dune 2, Taylor-Joy is repped by CAA, The Way Management and Felker Toczek Suddleson McGinnis Ryan.
