A new Apple TV+ show based and filmed in Baltimore will drop next month.

The big picture: The series "Lady in the Lake" is set in 1960s Baltimore. Natalie Portman stars as a dissatisfied housewife who begins investigating the mysterious death of a local mother involved in "the political underbelly of Black Baltimore," played by Charm City native Moses Ingram.

The show is based on a novel by former Baltimore Sun reporter Laura Lippman, which in turn is based on real murders that happened in the city.

Zoom in: The first two episodes of the seven-part series drop July 19. The remaining episodes will air each following Friday.
