AppleTV+ today unveiled a first look at Lady in the Lake.

The new mini-series starring Natalie Portman and Moses Ingram will debut two back-to-back episodes on Friday, July 19, 2024, followed by new episodes every Friday through August 23, 2024.

From director Alma Har’el, Lady in the Lake is described as a feverish noir thriller and an unexpected tale about the price women pay for their dreams.

The series centers on the events surrounding the disappearance of a young girl which grips the city of Baltimore on Thanksgiving 1966, pushing the lives of two women to converge on a fatal collision course.

Maddie Schwartz (Portman) is a Jewish housewife seeking to shed a secret past and reinvent herself as an investigative journalist, and Cleo Johnson (Ingram) is a mother navigating the political underbelly of Black Baltimore while struggling to provide for her family.

Their disparate lives seem parallel at first, but when Maddie becomes fixated on Cleo’s mystifying death, a chasm opens that puts everyone around them in danger.

Starring alongside Portman and Ingram in the series are Y’lan Noel, Brett Gelman, Byron Bowers, Noah Jupe, Josiah Cross, Mikey Madison and Pruitt Taylor Vince.

Lady in the Lake is produced by Crazyrose and Bad Wolf America, and is created, executive produced, written and directed by Har’el alongside producing partner Christopher Leggett.

Portman also serves as executive producer alongside producing partner Sophie Mas.

Nathan Ross and the late Jean-Marc Vallée serve as executive producers for Crazyrose, and Julie Gardner executive produces for Bad Wolf America. Layne Eskridge, Amy Kaufman, Boaz Yakin and author Lippman also executive produce.
