Based on the 2019 novel of the same name comes a new thriller with Natalie Portman and Moses Ingram leading the cast of characters surrounded by secrets and lies in Apple TV+'s Lady in the Lake.

The limited series boasts a talented cast that will likely deliver award-winning performances. Portman has landed eighty-four nominations, almost half of which have been won.

One of the most interesting things about the upcoming series is that while it is an adaptation of a novel, the story itself is based on actual events in 1969.

The three-minute trailer makes it clear that Apple TV+ has invested quite a bit in the limited series, and we don't blame them since Stephen King himself applauded the book.

The horror author gave the novel a positive review in The New York Times, calling it "extraordinary" and praising its use of plot twists and characterizations.
