A series adaptation of Adrian Lyne’s Fatal Attraction is on the way from Paramount+, and Deadline reports today that Dee Wallace (Cujo, The Lords of Salem) has joined the cast!
Deadline reports, “Wallace will portray Emma Rauch, who is described as open, friendly, chic, and interested but also sensitive to boundaries. She is a retired career woman, enthusiastic and helpful volunteer, mother of adult children, and a student of life— someone anyone but Alex (Lizzy Caplan) would be thrilled to have as their neighbor.”
David Meunier (Justified) also joins Alyssa Jirrels (Boo Bitch), Toby Huss (“Halt and Catch Fire”), Reno Wilson (“Good Girls”) and Brian Goodman (Chance).
Lizzy Caplan (“Castle Rock”) is set to star as female lead Alex, with Joshua Jackson (“Dr. Death”) playing Dan Gallagher. Amanda Peet (“The Chair”) will also star in the series.
“The series explores the timeless themes of marriage and infidelity through the lens of modern attitudes towards strong women, personality disorders and coercive control.”
In the 1987 movie…
“A married man’s one-night stand comes back to haunt him when that lover begins to stalk him and his family.”
Alexandra Cunningham and Kevin Hynes (Dirty John) are writing the script, with Cunningham show-running. The movie’s producers, Stanley Jaffe and Sherry Lansing, exec produce.
