"Reese's Book Club began with the goal of deepening connections -- to the stories, to the storytellers and to the community we are building," producer Reese Witherspoon said in a press release Monday.
"It is incredibly rewarding to be able to amplify these female-centric stories and their authors, see our community connect with them, then see them take on a whole new life on screen," she added.
"We couldn't be more excited to partner with Apple TV+ and the incomparable Anya Taylor-Joy, plus our brilliant creator Jonathan Tropper and his wonderful co-showrunner Cassie Pappas, to bring this compelling series -- based on Marissa Stapley's fantastic novel -- to audiences around the world."
