Une série sur Cléopâtre

Une série sur Cléopâtre avec le réalisateur Shekhar Kapur (réalisateur d'Elizabeth et Elizabeth Golden Age avec Cate Blanchett) aux manettes.

Now this is probably the best news of the week: not only that Slingshot Global Media has announced their work on CLEOPATRA epic TV series, but it has also been revealed today that our absolute favourite director Shekhar Kapur (ELIZABETH, ELIZABETH GOLDEN AGE, FOUR FEATHERS) will helm it and write it!  Instead of focusing on the arch seductress made famous by her affairs with men like Julius Caesar and Marc Antony, the show will highlight the opposite – that these men were famous because of her. It will follow the narrative of an 18-year-old girl who came to be a Pharaoh and a queen – a woman who was brighter, more intelligent, richer and a better ruler than the men of her time. The series will reinvent her as the modern woman, a woman that understood the power of myth and turned herself into a myth, constantly reinventing herself. It will highlight her great loves and her survival in the face of repeated assassination attempts, which made her one of the most dangerous, yet most powerful, thrones of all time.

Je suis un peu dubitative car beaucoup d'adaptations de la vie de Cléopatre que j'ai vu dans le passé ne m'ont pas franchement emballée, mais merci de l'info, attendons d'en savoir un peu plus sur tout ceci!

Oui, c'est vrai que ça peut être kitschissime ... A voir ...
