“My wife is a lot of things… there’s one thing that she’s not – that’s foolish.” What do we have here? Apple TV has revealed an official trailer for a new noir thriller mystery series titled Lady in the Lake, arriving for streaming this summer. Yet another crime series to keep people glued to their screens wondering who killed who.

The protagonist ditches her doting husband and big Pikesville home to pursue a career as a newspaper reporter. She then becomes obsessed with unraveling the mystery of two separate killings: eleven-year-old Tessie Fine and a bartender named Cleo Sherwood. Starring Natalie Portman, Moses Ingram, Y’lan Noel, Mikey Madison, Sean Ringgold, Brett Gelman, Noah Jupe, Mike Epps. From visionary director Alma Har’el, Lady in the Lake is a feverish noir thriller and an unexpected tale of the price women pay for their dream. Worth a look. // Continue Reading ›
