Apple TV has greenlit a new thriller series starring Dakota Fanning, who will also executive produce. The untitled show centers on an undercover Treasury agent entangled in a multibillion-dollar international conspiracy. Fanning’s character struggles with loyalty to her mission and her growing feelings for the heir of a corrupt empire.

The series marks another step in Apple’s strategy to expand its original programming slate with high-profile talent. Dakota joins her sister Elle Fanning, along with producers Brittany Kahan Ward, Julie Gardner, and director Kari Skogland. It’s a Sony Pictures Television production, deepening Apple and Sony’s ongoing partnership that includes hits like *For All Mankind* and *The Afterparty*.

While no release date is set, the project is expected to move into production soon. Apple’s streaming platform, priced at $12.99/month, continues to invest heavily in prestige content to compete with Netflix and HBO. Expect the series to carry strong awards season potential given the Fannings’ involvement and track record.
