How ‘We Were Liars’ Season 1 Deviates From Novel: Premiere Recap


Prime Video's 'We Were Liars' deviates from E. Lockhart's novel in its premiere with changes to characters, dynamics and pivotal secrets

Narrator Cadence ( Emily Alyn Lind) acts as the show’s throughline for viewers, explaining who’s who and the promise of something sinister to come as she appears half-naked on the beach in an opening scene. Basically, as the eldest boy and girl, Johnny and Cadence can do nothing wrong in the eyes of their grandparents Harris ( David Morse) and Tipper ( Wendy Crewson). Johnny, meanwhile, is hooking up with his tennis doubles partner and looking to party on what Carrie refers to as the “booze cruise” parked in the water just off the coast of Beechwood.
