Lucky

Lucky’s leading lady, Anya Taylor-Joy, has the word ‘resilience’ written all over. Which is why she was perfectly cast for the projects Furiosa: A Mad Max Story and The Queen’s Gambit. Now, Taylor-Joy leads Apple TV’s Lucky both as star and executive producer in a wild and thrilling chase in which she is the emotional heart. Playing the vulnerable but wily con artist, the actress is the best part of the series adaptation of Marissa Stapley’s novel. The limited series by Jonathan Tropper and Cassie Pappas makes sure that viewers are kept on the edge of their set as Lucky reaches the end of her nine lives. With a cast of veteran actors, Lucky manages to captivate.
