Created by Alan Yang (“Little America”) and Matt Hubbard (“30 Rock”), “Fortuna” is a satire on the ostentation of the rich.

From there, she decides to prove that she is more than an alienated wealthy woman by reinventing herself as a philanthropist.
“Thanks to Maya, Alan, Matt and the entire incredibly talented cast and creative team who created a show full of captivating and engaging characters and hilarious and heartwarming moments throughout each episode,” said Matt Cherniss, Apple’s Head of Programming. TV +, in the renewal notice. “This series has captured the hearts of the global audience and we are looking forward to the second season.”
In addition to Rudolph, the attraction also features Michaela Jaé “MJ” Rodriguez in her first role since “Pose”, as the lead character’s founding manager.
