Elisabeth Moss to star in “metaphysical thriller” Shining Girls for Apple TV+

July 26, 2020 by Gary Collinson

Having recently signed on for the horror-thriller Run Rabbit Run and true crime miniseries Candy, the ever-busy Elisabeth Moss has now added another project to her packed slate.

As revealed by TV Line, the Emmy-winning Handmaid’s Tale actress is set to executive produce and star in the “metaphysical thriller” Shining Girls, an adaptation of Lauren Beukes 2013 novel of the same name, which has received a series order from Apple TV+.

The new series, which is being adapted by Silka Luisa (Strange Angel), will see Moss portraying “a Chicago reporter who is assaulted and then finds her reality rapidly changing as she tries to find her attacker”.
