The first trailer for the new Cruel Intentions TV show has dropped like it’s hot, and we are ready to spill the tea! 🍵🔥
Starring Sarah Catherine Hook and Zac Burgess, this adaptation of the 1999 cult classic is like that old sweater you just can’t throw away—familiar but with a slightly musty odor of nostalgia. Get ready to meet the elite students of Manchester College, the most prestigious university just a hop, skip, and a jump away from Washington, D.C. Here, reputation is the ultimate currency, and if you don’t have it, well, good luck ordering your iced latte without getting side-eyed!
Our story revolves around two delightfully dastardly step-siblings: Caroline Merteuil (played by Hook) and Lucien Belmont (played by Burgess). These two would sell their grandma for a spot at the top of the social ladder. And let’s be honest, they probably have! When a brutal hazing incident threatens to unravel their precious Greek Life (yes, the one that involves toga parties and questionable decisions), they’ll stop at nothing to maintain their iron grip on the college hierarchy. This includes scheming, backstabbing, and possibly even running a few subpar social media campaigns.
Oh, and they have their eyes set on Annie Grover, the unsuspecting daughter of the Vice President. Yep, nothing says “destined for greatness” like seducing someone with a family connection to the White House. 💔💼 Hearts will be shattered, alliances will be put to the test, and scandalous secrets will ooze out like the last drop of your favorite margarita!
Joining this whirlwind of chaotic charm are Savannah Lee Smith as Annie Grover, Sara Silva as Cece Carroway, John Harlan Kim as Blaise Powell, Khobe Clarke as Scott Russell, and Brooke Lena Johnson as Beatrice Worth. And look who’s back from the original movie! Sean Patrick Thomas will grace us with his presence as Professor Hank Chadwick, ready to throw some major shade and perhaps a few pop quizzes.
Mark your calendars! Cruel Intentions will be making its grand debut with all eight episodes on November 21st, exclusively on Prime Video, and it’ll be available in over 240 countries! That’s right—this glorious drama is going worldwide. So grab your popcorn, settle in, and get ready for some serious social shenanigans! 🍿✨
