Literary Hub has two updates, courtesy of other entertainment news outlets, on book adaptations planned for Hulu.
Nick Hornby’s High Fidelity is a definite yes — we have a release date (February 14) AND a trailer, first shared by Entertainment Tonight.
Zoë Kravitz stars in this new version, which is (perhaps obviously) told from a woman’s perspective.
Fun fact: Her mother, Lisa Bonet, starred in the 2000 movie version of the novel.
On the other hand, Anne Rice’s The Vampire Chronicles is officially not coming to Hulu.
Hulu has, evidently, decided to pass on the project, according to Variety’s sources, but Rice and her team are shopping the series elsewhere.
The Vampire Chronicles began in 1976 with Interview with the Vampire and has continued to follow Lestat de Lioncourt over the decades.
