Natalie Portman and producing partner Sophie Mas have inked a first-look deal with Apple TV, which will see television projects from the newly formed MountainA production company on the platform first, this includes the recently announced project Lady in the Lake, starring Portman and Lupita Nyongo.
The TV deal makes sense for all parties as Portman, Mas and Apple worked together on the recently announced Apple Original limited series Lady in the Lake, which marked Portman’s TV acting debut. She is co-starring with Lupita Nyong’o on the series, directed and co-written by Alma Har’el. All three women serve as executive producers along with Dre Ryan, who will co-create and co-write the series with Har’el, who will write the pilot. Portman and Mas will serve as executive producers through MountainA.
We look forward to seeing what other content comes from Portman and Mas.
