Overview
- The limited series premieres in the U.K. on Sky and NOW on December 21.
- Reviews say the five-episode format feels earned and works as a companion to the Oscar-winning movie.
- This is a new adaptation of Peter Shaffer’s 1979 play rather than a remake of Miloš Forman’s film.
- Will Sharpe plays Mozart opposite Paul Bettany’s Salieri, with Gabrielle Creevy taking a larger turn as Constanze.
- Created by Joe Barton with episodes directed by Julian Farino and Alice Seabright, the show adopts a darker tone with explicit sexual content and added focus on home life.
