AMC+ SETS JANUARY 20 PREMIERE DATE FOR THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED NEW SERIES "LA FORTUNA" STARRING STANLEY TUCCI AND CLARKE PETERS

International Production From Director Alejandro Amenábar Will Debut With Two Episodes Followed by New Episodes Weekly, Every Thursday

New York, NY - Wednesday, December 8 - AMC Networks announced today that the adventure thriller La Fortuna, starring two-time Golden Globe winner Stanley Tucci and acclaimed actor Clarke Peters, will premiere on Thursday, January 20 on AMC+ with two episodes, followed by new episodes streaming weekly, every Thursday.

Forming a unique team with Lucía (Polvorosa), a combative public official, and Jonas Pierce (Peters), a brilliant American lawyer with a passion for old pirate tales, Álex sets out on the adventure of a lifetime, on which he learns about the importance of love, friendship and commitment to your own beliefs.
