Prime Video’s ‘Cruel Intentions’ TV remake will consist of eight episodes and star Sarah Catherine Hook, Zac Burgess and more
Prime Video confirmed in December 2023 that a TV series based on the original 1999 cult classic was in the works. Consisting of eight episodes, season 1 of the YA drama will serve as an update to the original film, which was based on the 1781 novel Dangerous Liaisons, and starred Sarah Michelle Gellar, Ryan Phillippe and Reese Witherspoon.
Described as the “next chapter” to Cruel Intentions, the series will take place in Washington D.C. where “two ruthless step-siblings will do anything to stay on top of the cutthroat social hierarchy,” per the official description. Sarah Catherine Hook, Zac Burgess and Savannah Lee Smith will star in the lead roles as Caroline Merteuil, Lucien Belmont and Annie Grover, respectively.
“We are so excited to get to work together to continue the legacy of Cruel Intentions, a film that remains beloved by so many — including us!“ showrunners Goodman and Fisher said in a December 2023 press release. “We promise to make this next iteration as fun, irreverent and boundary-pushing as the original, and are grateful to our partners at Original Film, Sony and Amazon MGM Studios for trusting us to keep it Cruel.
Caroline offers herself to stepbrother Lucien as a prize for seducing the vVice pPresident's daughter, Annie, and the imagery all looks familiar: a romantic pool scene, a rosary with a hidden compartment, a black vintage car.
