The Talented Mr. Ripley
Carefree dolce vita is the life Tom Ripley dreams of in his dingy New York basement – and the one his school friend Dickie Greenleaf leads. When Dickie's father, a wealthy industrialist, asks Tom to travel to Italy to bring back his lost son, it is a dream come true for a down-and-out like Tom. But nobody knows how far Ripley will go to become part of Dickie's world, forever.
More than twenty years after Anthony Minghella's successful remake, we can finally reunite with Patricia Highsmith's most compelling character in the gripping Netflix series starring Andrew Scott as Tom Ripley, costarring Dakota Fanning and Johnny Flynn.
Written and directed by Hollywood legend Steven Zaillian (Hannibal, Schindler's List, The Night Of).
