Netflix’s newest series will be en pointe.
A series is being developed based on the book by Sona Charaipotra and Dhonielle Clayton which is set in the world of ballet.
Ten 1-hour-long episodes have been ordered for the first series of Tiny Pretty Things which, according to the streaming service, is set in the world of an elite ballet academy and charts the rise and fall of young adults who live far from their homes, each standing on the verge of greatness or ruin. The Archer School is an oasis for an array of dancers: rich and poor, from north and south, and a range of backgrounds.
Michael MacLennan of Bomb Girls will serve as showrunner, writer, and executive producer of the series that has cast Lauren Holly, Kylie Jefferson, Casimere Jollette, Daniela Norman, Brennan Clost, Michael Hsu Rosen, Damon J. Gillespie, Bayardo De Murguia, Jess Salgueiro, Barton Cowperthwaite, and Tory Trowbridge.
Tiny Pretty Things is expected to debut in 2020.
