Thursday night at the Museum of Arts and Design in New York City, Apple TV+ celebrated the world premiere of its highly anticipated limited series “Lady in the Lake,” starring and executive produced by Academy Award winner Natalie Portman and starring Moses Ingram. The first two episodes of “Lady in the Lake” will premiere globally on Friday, July 19, with new episodes premiering weekly on Fridays through August 23, exclusively on Apple TV+.

Attendees at the “Lady in the Lake” premiere included cast and executive producers from the series with creator, writer, director and executive producer Alma Har’el, Portman and Ingram, along with stars Y’lan Noel, Byron Bowers, Josiah Cross, Noah Jupe, Dylan Arnold, Mikey Madison and more.

Moses Ingram, director Alma Har’el and Natalie Portman attend the “Lady in the Lake” New York City premiere. “Lady in the Lake” premieres globally on Apple TV+ on Friday, July 19, 2024.

The seven-episode thriller is based on the bestselling book by author Laura Lippman and features Natalie Portman and Moses Ingram as the series leads. The series revolves around the disappearance of a young girl that grips the city of Baltimore on Thanksgiving 1966, and the lives of two women converging 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. From visionary director Alma Har’el, “Lady in the Lake” emerges as a feverish noir thriller and an unexpected tale of the price women pay for their dreams.

Har’el serves as the creator, executive producer, writer and director alongside executive producers Christopher Leggett, Julie Gardner and Layne Eskridge. Portman also serves as executive producer alongside producing partner Sophie Mas. Hailing from FIFTH SEASON, “Lady in the Lake” is produced by Crazyrose and Bad Wolf America with Nathan Ross and the late Jean-Marc Vallée serving as executive producers for Crazyrose and Gardner executive producing for Bad Wolf America. Eskridge, Amy Kaufman, Boaz Yakin and author Lippmann also executive produce.
