Apple TV+ announce a series order for "The Changeling," a new drama series based on the acclaimed, best-selling book of the same name by Victor LaValle with LaKeith Stanfield ("Atlanta," "Judas and the Black Messiah," "The Harder They Fall") attached to star and executive produce. The series will be written and adapted by Kelly Marcel ("Cruella," "Venom," "Venom" 2), who will also serve as showrunner and executive producer.
