First Trailer for 'A Tale of Two Cities' Adaptation Feat. Kit Harington

"What is he to you?" "A second chance at life!" MGM+ has revealed the first official trailer for the series A Tale of Two Cities, a brand new adaptation of the Charles Dickens story. The novel tells the story of the French Doctor Manette, his 18-year-long imprisonment in the Bastille in Paris, and release to live in London with his daughter Lucie whom he had never met. The story is set against the conditions that led up to the French Revolution and the Reign of Terror. It was adapted a few times before - into a famous 1935 film with Ronald Colman & Elizabeth Allan; another 1980 film with Chris Sarandon; and a few TV series of course. A pair of lookalikes, one a former French aristocrat and the other an alcoholic English lawyer, fall in love with the same woman amidst the turmoil of the French Revolution. Kit Harrington stars as Sydney Carton & François Civil as Charles Darnay, and Mirren Mack as Lucie Manette; plus Ian Pirie, Roxane Duran, Sharon Duncan-Brewster, Yannick Renier. This epic new adaptation is ready for streaming starting in September coming up soon – both in the US on MGM+ and in the UK on BBC One. Along with the brand new French adaptation of Les Miserables, it seems that the French Revolution is a relevant story yet again. // Continue Reading ›
