Cult 90s Film Gets Reboot TV Series on Prime Video for Irish Audience

Remember the 90s cult classic film Cruel Intentions? Well, now it’s back in the form of a TV series on Prime Video! The show, which debuted its first episode at the end of November, is set to release eight episodes in total.

Fans of the original movie, which starred Reese Witherspoon, have been eager to see how the iconic story translates into a modern-day TV series. The plot follows Annette, a character caught up in a twisted game between a manipulative rich kid named Sebastian and his step-sister, Kathryn. The tension and drama that made the original movie so captivating are still very much present in the series.

While some viewers have praised the show for its execution, others have expressed concerns about whether the remake lives up to the original. Developed by Phoebe Fisher and Sara Goodman, the series aims to recreate the magic of the beloved film that captured audiences in the 90s.

One interesting aspect of the TV adaptation is that it takes place in the modern day, yet doesn’t delve into the realm of social media, unlike most contemporary shows. Some devoted fans see this as a nod to the original film, which used letter writing as a key form of communication.

Despite receiving mixed reviews from critics, audiences seem to be loving the show. Many viewers have pointed out the strong character development and engaging plot, making them hopeful for future seasons. The Cruel Intentions series, along with the original 1999 movie, is available to stream on Prime Video.
