Apple TV+ has ordered “The Changeling,” a new drama series based on the book of the same name starring and executive produced by LaKeith Stanfield.
“The Changeling,” based on the best-selling book by Victor LaValle, is described as a “fairytale for grown-ups.” Apple says the drama series will involve a “horror story, a parenthood fable and a perilous odyssey through a New York City you didn’t know existed.”
The series will be written and adapted by Kelly Marcel, who will also serve as an executive producer and showrunner. Melina Matsoukas is set to direct and executive produce.
“The Changeling” will be produced for Apple by Annapurna and Apple Studios. Megan Ellison, Sue Naegle, Patrick Chu, Ali Krug, and Khaliah Neal will also executive produce alongside Marcel, Matsoukas, and Stanfield.
Stanfield is known for his previous work on shows like “Atlanta,” “Judas and the Black Messiah,” and “The Harder They Fall.” Matsoukas previously worked on projects like “Queen & Slim” and “Insecure.”
