‘Prep’ Series Based on Curtis Sittenfeld Bestseller a Go at Netflix

Netflix is expanding its YA slate with a straight-to-series order for Prep, based on the best-selling novel by Curtis Sittenfeld. Nicole Taylor (One Day) will adapt the novel and serve as showrunner on the series, which centers on a girl from Indiana who attends a prestigious boarding school in Massachusetts. Taylor will executive produce with Will Ferrell, Jessica Elbaum, and Alix Taylor of Gloria Sanchez Productions and Sittenfeld. “Prep is my all time favorite novel, and I have longed to adapt it for the entire 20 years since I first read it and found myself reflected uncannily back,” said Nicole Taylor in a statement. “There is no more acute depiction of the introspective, bookish self-conscious adolescent girl and no more truthful or excoriating take on the perils of social mobility than in Curtis Sittenfeld’s beautiful first novel.

Forget Jason Statham, the Best Action Movie of the Last 30 Years Is Back on Netflix

Harrison Ford spent decades making wildly implausible heroes feel like ordinary guys having a terrible day. An archaeologist outrunning a giant boulder? Sure. A space smuggler taking on an evil empire? Absolutely. In Air Force One, he pulls off something that now feels considerably more farfetched: an American president you’d trust with your life. Released in 1997, Air Force One stars Ford as President James Marshall, a commander-in-chief who fights back after terrorists hijack his plane. The pitch is essentially “Die Hard, but John McClane is the president,” and the movie delivers exactly the ridiculous good time that promises. Ford’s charisma somehow makes every punch, speech, and impossible escape feel believable.
