Coming on the heels of landing the rights to the Sundance favorite CODA, Apple Studios is continuing to build its roster of upcoming films as it has won a sci-fi package entitled Dolly with Oscar nominee Florence Pugh (Midsommar, Black Widow) attached to star, according to Deadline.
Apple TV+, who are gearing up for the Russo Brothers-helmed crime thriller Cherry starring Tom Holland (Spider-Man: Far From Home), reportedly beat out three other bidders reportedly comprised of another streaming platform and film studios.
The film, written by Vanessa Taylor (Hillbilly Elegy) and Drew Pearce (Hotel Artemis) and inspired by the short story of the same name from Elizabeth Bear, is described as a courtroom drama in which a robotic companion doll kills its owner, but subsequently claims she is not guilty.
