Cruel Intentions fans are finally getting their long-awaited TV remake. (Seriously, it’s actually happening!)

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.

“Cruel Intentions defined an era and is still a centerpiece in popular culture. We are excited to have [showrunners] Phoebe [Fisher] and Sara [Goodman] bring this new adaptation to life, as this has been a passion project of ours since I got to Sony,” Lauren Stein, head of creative for Sony Pictures Television, shared in a statement at the time. “We are grateful for our partners at Prime Video, Amazon MGM Studios and Original Film, who brought the movie to life over 20 years ago.”

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.

After its premiere in 1999, Cruel Intentions still has fans talking about its scandalous story line — and dreamy lead Sebastian Valmont. In the 90s cult classic, which is a teen version of the French film Dangerous Liaisons, Sebastian’s (Ryan Phillippe) sultry stepsister Kathryn Merteuil (Sarah Michelle Gellar) challenges him to “deflower” the new school headmaster’s […]

Prime’s iteration of Cruel Intentions is not the first attempted remake. Fox filmed three episodes of a prequel series in the early 2000s, which were combined into the direct-to-video 2001 film titled Cruel Intentions 2. Three years later, Sony released Cruel Intentions 3 as a direct-to-video project. In 2016, a pilot for an NBC revival series was filmed featuring Gellar reprising her role as Kathryn Merteuil, but the drama ultimately never made it to air.

“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.”
