Harlem Adaptation

Apple TV has acquired the rights to Colson Whitehead’s crime trilogy books, Harlem.

“To his customers and neighbors on 125th street, Carney is an upstanding salesman of reasonably priced furniture, making a decent life for himself and his family. He and his wife Elizabeth are expecting their second child, and if her parents on Striver’s Row don’t approve of him or their cramped apartment across from the subway tracks, it’s still home.

Few people know he descends from a line of uptown hoods and crooks, and that his façade of normalcy has more than a few cracks in it. Cracks that are getting bigger all the time.”

Apple TV has yet to announce the release date for the series.

Clueless Sequel

Paramount Skydance Corporation has given a limited series order to a new comedy Clueless sequel series. “Picking up 30 years after the original film, beloved Beverly Hills icon Cher Horowitz has figured out a lot: She’s successful in business and has mastered motherhood — that is, until her daughter’s high school years, and Cher finds that parenting a teenager makes her feel “clueless” all over again.” Alicia Silverstone will play Cher.
