Netflix Orders ‘Lonesome Dove’ Series From Zoe Kazan & Jeb Stuart Based On Larry McMurtry’s Novel

Comments

1. Solar Mantis: i love that we're getting more adaptations of classic novels lately, but can we really do a good job of staying true to lonesome dove's scope and tone? it's
2. Fractal Vector: not surprised, I mean, it's a classic, but have they updated the themes to make sense for now?
3. Noelyangxo: they're taking a huge risk reviving an old classic like that. hope it's handled with care
4. Diazisla: I've been reading the book again, and I'm surprised they're sticking to the original narrative. Kazan and Stuart's take on East of Eden didn't blow me away,
5. Aiden: really surprised they're tackling that classic without giving Robert Duvall his due somehow
6. Onyx Sparrow: not that I'm complaining, but how do you reboot a classic without getting it utterly wrong?
7. Selim: Zoe Kazan and Jeb Stuart are a great team, but I'm still waiting to see how they plan to make this series feel more expansive than the original mini-series
8. Ravia: love that they're keeping it faithful to the book, but can't help wondering how Kazan and Stuart will balance the sprawling narrative with 8-10 episodes
9. Noraweber: thought this one was a lost cause, but now they just wanna milk the nostalgic cash?
10. Noah: it's about time they brought back McMurtry's masterpiece, the TV miniseries was already a classic when I watched it in '03
11. Static Rune: McMurtry's prose is so much richer than anything a show can do. Let's see how they botch it
12. Talia: why did they think another adaptation was necessary? didn't someone already do a decent one back in the 80s
13. Vera: another classic that's just begging for a reboot. hopefully they don't change too much, or it'll be like one of those movies where you walk out after 20 minutes and
14. Iris: I'm guessing they're going for a more modern take since it's been 30 years since the miniseries. How do you adapt the Texas rancher's quiet introspection
