The post Kristine Froseth and Alisha Boe to Lead Apple TV+ Series “The Buccaneers” appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>According to its official logline, The Buccaneers centers on “a group of fun-loving young American girls explode into the tightly corseted London season of the 1870s, kicking off an Anglo-American culture clash as the land of the stiff upper lip is infiltrated by a refreshing disregard for centuries of tradition.”
Froseth (Looking for Alaska) will take on the role of Nan St. George, while Boe (13 Reasons Why) will play Conchita Closson. The cast will also include Josie Totah (Saved by the Bell), Aubri Ibrag (Dive Club), Imogen Waterhouse (The Outpost), and Mia Threapleton (Shadows).
The Buccaneers is one of Wharton’s least adapted works, and it was only turned into a BBC mini-series in 1995, starring Carla Gugino and Greg Wise. The Pulitzer Prize-winning author is the mastermind behind some of the most iconic novels taking place during the Gilded Age, including The Age of Innocence, The House of Mirth, and Ethan Frome, which have all been adapted for the big screen.
The Buccaneers is in production in Scotland, with Katherine Jakeways serving as series creator, and Susanna White coming on board to direct.

]]>Carey’s Christmas special has been described as an “innovative special” that will mix music, dancing, and animation “driven by a universally heartwarming story that brings the world together”.
Carey feels like the best possible person to host a Christmas special since her song “All I Want for Christmas Is You” tends to make a comeback every holiday season. That’s exactly what happened last year, when this Christmas tune topped the Billboard Hot 100 for the first time since its release 25 years ago.
Hamish Hamilton and Roman Coppola will be in charge of directing this holiday special, and several surprise guests are expected to make an appearance. This won’t be Carrey’s first Christmas special—she hosted Mariah Carey’s Merriest Christmas on Hallmark Channel back in 2015.
