Official Trailer and Images of ‘Ripley’ Limited Series with Andrew Scott

He’s a liar. It’s his profession.

Netflix today released the official trailer and new images of Ripley, the new limited series starring Andrew Scott and Dakota Fanning, based on Patricia Highsmith’s bestselling Tom Ripley novels.

Ripley, written, directed, and executive produced by Academy Award winner Steve Zaillian (Schindler’s List, The Irishman, The Night Of), will immerse you in a suspense-filled journey set in Italy in the ’60s. Andrew Scott (All of Us Strangers, Fleabag) leads the eight-episode limited series as the roguish protagonist Tom Ripley, a grifter scraping by in early 1960s New York, is hired by a wealthy industrialist to travel to Italy to try to convince the man’s dilettante son, Dickie Greenleaf (Johnny Flynn) to return home. Tom’s acceptance of the job is the first step into a complex life of deceit, fraud and murder.

Ripley is co-produced by Showtime and Endemol Shine North America in association with Entertainment 360 and Filmrights. All eight episodes were directed and written by Steven Zaillian.

Ripley premieres April 4, 2024, only on Netflix. Executive producers are Steven Zaillian, Garrett Basch, Clayton Townsend, Guymon Casady (Entertainment 360), Benjamin Forkner, Philipp Keel (Diogenes) and Sharon Levy and Charlie Corwin (Endemol Shine). Scott will serve as a producer on the series.

Here is the official trailer and new stills.
