Dakota Fanning will star in and exec produce the unnamed thriller

Apple TV will be home to an as-yet-untitled thriller starring and executive produced by Dakota Fanning (All Her Fault) and created by Emmy Award-winner Alex Cary.

Fanning will star as an undercover Treasury agent in a multi-billion-dollar international conglomerate who becomes conflicted between her mission and a belief that her principal target is at his core a good man and worthy of her love.

Created by Alex Cary (A Spy Among Friends, Homeland), it comes from Sony Pictures Television (SPT) and joins other Apple TV thrillers such as Severance, Hijack and Slow Horses.

It is executive produced by Cary, who also serves as creator and showrunner under his overall deal with SPT and his FLW Productions banner.

Julie Gardner (Lady in the Lake, Doctor Who) executive produces for SPT-owned Bad Wolf America and Fanning executive produces alongside Elle Fanning and Brittany Kahan Ward of Lewellen Pictures (Margo’s Got Money Troubles, The Great). Kari Skogland (Smoke, The Handmaid’s Tale) will direct and serve as executive producer.
