“I’m just trying to figure out how everything works around here…” Prime Video has revealed the full trailer for Cruel Intentions, a 2024 update on the 90s movie of the same name. Ready to view in November if anyone wants to watch. This is the 3rd attempt at a TV series based on the world of Cruel Intentions (1999) which was adapted from the French novel. The straight-to-video sequel Cruel Intentions 2 (2000), with Amy Adams replacing Sarah Michelle Gellar, was originally a scripted series before being re-edited into a feature. Gellar would later reprise her role as Kathryn in 2016 for the NBC pilot Cruel Intentions (2016), which was not ordered to series. After a hazing incident at their elite college, step-siblings Caroline and Lucien set about to preserve their power and reputation by seducing the daughter of the Vice President of the United States. PV’s Cruel Intentions series stars Sarah Catherine Hook as Caroline and Zac Burgess as Lucien, plus Savannah Lee Smith, Sara Silva, John Harlan Kim, Khobe Clarke, Sean Patrick Thomas, & Brooke Lena Johnson. So many rich & beautiful people in this series. Watch out for the dangerous ones.
Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Prime Video’s series Cruel Intentions, direct from YouTube:
In this new adaptation of the classic, Cruel Intentions follows the elite students of Manchester College, a Washington, DC-adjacent university, where reputation means everything, fraternities and sororities are the gold standard, and two ruthless step-siblings, Caroline Merteuil and Lucien Belmont, will do anything to stay on top of the cutthroat social hierarchy. After a brutal hazing incident threatens the entire Greek Life system, they’ll do whatever is necessary to preserve their power and reputation – even if that means seducing Annie Grover, who happens to be the daughter of the Vice President of the United States. Hearts might be broken, loyalties will be tested, and secrets will be revealed in this modern-day royal court that is Manchester College. Cruel Intentions is a series created and written and showrun by the two writers Sara Goodman (Army of One, When We Were Boys, “The Hardy Boys” series) & Phoebe Fisher (Down Low). With episodes directed by Nick Copus and Adam Arkin. Made by Sony Pictures Television, Amazon MGM Studios, & Original Film. It’s executive produced by Goodman, Fisher, Arkin, Neal H. Moritz, Pavun Shetty, Roger Kumble, Monika Bacardi, Andrea Iervolino, and Bruce Mellon. Amazon will debut this newest Cruel Intentions series streaming on Prime Video starting November 21st, 2024 this fall. Is anyone interested?
