2004 novel Let the right to one From author John Ajvide Lindqvist It was first adapted into a movie in 2008 by Swedish director Thomas Alfredsson, only to then gain another adaptation of Batman Director Matt Reeves back in 2010, with the concept once again being adapted into live action, albeit in the form of a TV series on Showtime. Entertainment Weekly We got our first look at the new TV series, starring Eleanor Kane as a young vampire, and Demian Basher as her father Mark. Additionally, showrunner Andrew Hendkerker shared details of how he honored the source material while also shifting the focus for this new show on the material.
“The [original] The film is about the relationship between an isolated boy being bullied and a lonely, reclusive girl, who we learn is a vampire, “Hinderaker shared with the executor.” What I found very compelling about this movie is that there is a much smaller relationship between the vampire and [her] adult person. I really used the movie as inspiration for a story that really centers on a 12-year-old girl who has been a vampire for 10 years. She has been cared for by her father, who keeps her alive, who keeps her ahead of the law, who keeps hope alive for both that one day they will find a cure and that won’t always be her life. “
Also starring in the film are Grace Gummer, Kevin Carroll, Jacob Buster, Nick Stahl and Jilko Ivanic.
Bashir explained the details of the project, “This is the story of a father and his daughter and all the obstacles they have to overcome and overcome in order to survive.” “Mark’s daughter has, so to speak, a very strange and horrible virus, a disease, whatever you want to call it. I say [it like] That’s because this story, to me, is beyond any vampire story. For me, this relates to many other things we already experience. It’s about how hard it is for anyone to be different and to try to integrate into any society.”
With nearly 200 reviews, the first modification has been critically acclaimed, receiving 98% of positive reviews on the aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes. Although he was not universally loved, the movie directed by Reeves let me in It also had a strong critical proposition, receiving 88% of positive reviews.
A key component of the story is how a young vampire befriends a boy who moves to the same apartment complex, a relationship that will continue to be prominent in this TV series.
“It was important to me that I aspire to capture the spirit of the film and for the show to be a love letter to it,” Hendricker expressed. “In the movie, there’s a very pivotal relationship between the two kids in terms of what makes them so creative, and what makes them so beautiful. So, this father and daughter move in next to another 12-year-old, Isaiah, an isolated and troubled boy. Isaiah and Madison, a vampire pose as a vampire. We have, a really strong and precarious friendship that makes it precarious because Isaiah’s mother is a homicide detective.”
