Moses Ingram’s star has been on the rise in the past few years, and she just landed a role in another exciting project. She’s joining Natalie Portman in Apple TV+ limited series Lady in the Lake, replacing Lupita Nyong’o after she exited the project earlier this year.
Lady in the Lake is based on Laura Lippman’s novel of the same name and it takes us back to the ‘60s Baltimore. It focuses on a housewife and mother Maddie Schwartz (Portman), who decides to reinvent her life as an investigative journalist after an unsolved murder piques her interest.
Her investigation sets her on a collision course with Cleo Sherwood (Ingram), whose character has been described as “a hardworking woman juggling motherhood, many jobs, and a passionate commitment to advancing Baltimore’s Black progressive agenda.”
Honey Boy director Alma Har’el is writing and directing the project, in addition to executive producing alongside Portman. This series marks the first foray into television for both.
Ingram, on the other hand, is no stranger to leading successful TV shows. Her rise to prominence started when she appeared on Netflix’s hit drama The Queen’s Gambit, and she cemented her statutes as one of the most promising young actresses with the role in the Disney+ series Obi-Wan Kenobi.
