Apple TV's 'Lucky' series starring Anya Taylor-Joy premieres
The crime‑drama series Lucky premiered on Apple TV on 15 July 2026, featuring Anya Taylor‑Joy as con‑artist Lucky Armstrong. The seven‑part show follows her character through high‑stakes heists, FBI pressure and a volatile crime boss, with creator Jonathan Tropper noting her performance “changed the tone of the series”. Executive producer Cassie Pappas highlighted the use of silence over dialogue to heighten tension.
The series has been praised for its fast‑paced storytelling and the chemistry between Taylor‑Joy and co‑star Timothy Olyphant, who plays her mentor‑father. While the first season is designed to conclude neatly, producers indicated they have left the door open for a potential second season if audience demand warrants it.
