The series that, according to critics, is the most captivating they have ever made is coming to Netflix.

The upcoming release of the Ripley series on Netflix, scheduled for April 2024, has generated great anticipation in the film community and among thriller enthusiasts. Based on the acclaimed novel by Patricia Highsmith, this new adaptation has stood out for its fresh and artisanal approach, establishing itself as one of the best surprises of the year. From its early reviews, it has been included in numerous best-of-the-year lists and has received praise for its script, direction, and performances.

The series, set in an evocative 1960s New York, follows Tom Ripley, a con artist who becomes obsessed with Dickie Greenleaf, the son of a millionaire. This obsession leads him to embark on an insidious game of deception and desire. With a cast led by Andrew Scott, the series has been nominated for 14 Emmy Awards, highlighting the talent behind the camera, with Steven Zaillian winning the award for Best Direction of a Miniseries. However, Scott’s critically acclaimed portrayal of Ripley did not earn him the Best Actor award, leaving audiences questioning his omission from the awards.

A series that stands out for its aesthetic approach

Attractive for its aesthetics, Ripley has been shot in black and white, making it a visually striking and artistic experience, appreciated in reviews as “the most beautiful series I have seen on the platform”. The artistic work is perfectly complemented by a script that maintains tension and presents memorable dialogues and complex characters, preserving the essence of the original work.

For those looking for a different thriller compared to the conventional Harlan Coben productions on Netflix, Ripley presents itself as an irresistible option that promises to leave a mark on contemporary television storytelling.
