This will be the third attempt at a television series based on the world of Okrutne namjere (1999)
Narrative
Following a hazing incident at their elite university, step-siblings Caroline and Lucien set out to preserve their power and reputation by seducing the daughter of the Vice President of the United States. The direct-to-video sequel Okrutne namjere 2 (2000), with Amy Adams replacing Sarah Michelle Gellar as Kathryn Merteuil, was originally a scripted television series before being re-edited into a feature film.
It follows Okrutne namjere (1999)
Gellar would later reprise her role as Kathryn in 2016 for the NBC pilot Cruel Intentions (2016), which was not ordered to series. Aside from Sara Silva, who played CeCe, all of the actors were terribly cast.
To say the acting was lackluster is an understatement
I don’t mean to say that they aren’t decent actors… But the main characters were definitely not fit for these roles. The story was decent, and while it is understood that these are not the same characters as in the original film, they are loosely based on them.
It’s not a completely different story… They did mimic certain scenes from the original, such as Caroline kissing Annie
Lucian was meant to be a sexy character like Sebastian, but I don’t understand how Zak Burgess was thought to be the right actor and look for this role. Sara Catherine Hook, who played Caroline, did a decent job of portraying a bitch, but like Zak and Lucien’s character, they didn’t really pull off being “sexy and seductive.” It would have helped to not use the title Cruel Intentions for the show, but regardless, these actors and actresses just didn’t hit the mark.
