Summary
Apple TV’s seven-episode “Lucky” premieres July 15, centering on Luciana “Lucky” Armstrong after a heist unravels and her husband vanishes with a suitcase of cash.
A $10 million theft tied to a $200 million gas-fraud scheme drives the chase, with FBI agents pursuing Lucky while former allies and criminals close in.
Anya Taylor-Joy leads a cast including Timothy Olyphant, Annette Bening, Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor, Clifton Collins Jr. and William Fichtner in Jonathan Tropper’s adaptation of Marissa Stapley’s 2021 novel.
The review calls the miniseries a standout for 2026, praising its brisk pacing, layered cons and Taylor-Joy’s first starring TV role since 2020’s “The Queen’s Gambit.”
