The actress leads a gripping story of deception, pursuit and survival in one of the most anticipated television releases of the summer.
Anya Taylor-Joy is stepping back into the spotlight with another high-profile project. The acclaimed actress leads Lucky, the new Apple TV+ limited series that has just unveiled its first official trailer. Based on the bestselling novel by Marissa Stapley, the production promises a compelling blend of crime, suspense and psychological drama, placing its protagonist at the centre of a dangerous game where every decision carries life-changing consequences.
Taylor-Joy stars as Lucky, a professional con artist whose carefully constructed world collapses after a multimillion-dollar heist goes disastrously wrong. What should have been the ultimate score quickly turns into a desperate fight for survival. Hunted by both the FBI and a ruthless crime boss determined to recover what he believes belongs to him, Lucky is forced to go on the run while confronting a past filled with secrets, betrayals and difficult choices.
The newly released trailer offers a glimpse into a story fuelled by relentless tension, high-stakes chases and unexpected twists. Beyond its crime-thriller foundations, the series appears equally focused on the emotional journey of a woman attempting to redefine herself while everything around her threatens to unravel. As the pressure intensifies, Lucky must rely on her intelligence, instincts and resilience to stay one step ahead of those pursuing her.
Alongside Anya Taylor-Joy, the cast features an impressive ensemble including Annette Bening, Timothy Olyphant, Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor, Drew Starkey, Clifton Collins Jr. and William Fichtner, creating one of the strongest television line-ups of the season.
The series comes from Jonathan Tropper, creator of Your Friends & Neighbors, who serves as creator, writer, executive producer and co-showrunner alongside Cassie Pappas. The project is also backed by Reese Witherspoon and Lauren Neustadter through Hello Sunshine, the production company behind several of the most successful television dramas of recent years.
With its combination of gripping suspense, emotional depth and star-powered talent, Lucky is already shaping up to be one of the standout streaming releases of 2026. The limited series will premiere on 15 July on Apple TV+, debuting with its first two episodes before continuing weekly throughout the summer.
