Clifton Collins Jr. is feelin’ lucky…

The 54-year-old Mexican American Emmy-nominated actor has joined the cast of Apple TV+‘s limited series Lucky created by Jonathan Tropper.

Production is currently underway in Los Angeles.

Based on Marissa Stapley’s bestselling novel and Reese’s Book Club pick of the same name, Lucky stars Anya Taylor-Joy as the eponymous heroine. She is a young woman who left behind the life of crime she was raised in years ago but must now embrace her darker, criminal side one final time in a desperate attempt to escape her past.

Collins will portray ‘Dutch.’

He joins a cast that includes Annette Bening, Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor, Timothy Olyphant, Mo McCrae and Drew Starkey.

Lucky is produced by Hello Sunshine and Tropper Ink, and is created by Tropper under his overall deal with Apple TV+. Jonathan Van Tulleken will direct several episodes, including the pilot, and serve as executive producer.

Collins will next work in Eddington for A24 alongside Joaquin Phoenix and Emma Stone, The Last Frontier with Jason Clarke and the JonBenet Ramsey series for Paramount+ alongside Melissa McCarthy and Clive Owen.

He received an Emmy Award nomination in 2006 for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Miniseries or Movie for his portrayal of “Jack “Bump” Hill” in FX’s Thief.

On the big screen, Collins starred as “Jackson Silva” in Jockey (2021) from Greg Kwedar and Clint Bentley, a role for which he received the Best Actor award at Sundance.

His additional film credits include Capote, Nightmare Alley, After Yang, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Traffic and Pacific Rim.
