Apple TV+ and Skydance Animation’s new computer-animated fantasy is coming to the streaming service this summer! Luck will premiere globally on Friday, Aug. 5.
The new film mostly takes place in the Land of Luck. It’s a place where animals and creatures work behind the scenes to create the lucky and unlucky moments that make up our everyday lives. The whole operation works because no human has made their way into the land. But Sam Greenfield, the unluckiest person in the world, finds her way in. She hopes by being there she can turn her luck around, but Sam’s bad luck may lead to the shut down of the whole operation!
The upcoming movie has a star-studded cast including Broadway star Eva Noblezada, Mission Impossible actor Simon Pegg, multi-award winner Whoopi Goldberg, two-time Academy Award winner Jane Fonda, Once Upon a Time actor Colin O’Donoghue, among others.
