Netflix’s “Les brumes” Turns a Foggy Island Into a Death Trap
Netflix has ordered to series “Les brumes,” a suspense thriller series based on Olivier Norek’s book “Dans les brumes de Capelans”, reports Variety.
Matthieu Delaporte and Alexandre de La Patellière, the screenwriting-filmmaking duo behind the smash hit “The Count of Monte Cristo,” are making their first series with Pathé and Netflix.
Created and written by Delaporte, de La Patellière and Sylvain Caron, the six-part series unfolds after an elusive killer disappears in the wake of a string of murders:
“Anna, a mute young woman and the sole survivor, is urgently extracted to a windswept Atlantic island. There lives Victor Coste, a police officer who has exiled himself to the other side of the world. Cut off from everything, he accepts one last mission: to get Anna to talk, identify the killer, and prevent him from striking again. But when the world’s densest fog rolls in, a race against time begins, as the island itself turns into a trap,” reads the synopsis.
The cast is set to start shooting on Jan. 13 in France and Ireland with a topnotch French cast, including Pio Marmaï (“The Three Musketeers”), Alice Da Luz (“Carême”), Bouli Lanners (“The night of the 12th”), Stéphane Caillard (“Ad Vitam”), Zineb Triki (“Eagles of the Republic”), Patrick Mille (“The Count of Monte Cristo”), Florence Loiret-Caille (“The Bureau”), Léonie Dahan-Lamort (“Nudes”) and Paul Beaurepaire (“The Richest Woman in the World”).
Delaporte and de La Patellière will be directing with Thierry Poiraud.
