‘Age of Innocence,’ ‘Unaccustomed Earth’ Series Adaptations Set at Netflix
Netflixis greenlighting series version of "The Age of Innocence" by Edith Wharton and "Unaccustomed Earth" by Jhumpa Lahiri
It has been adapted for the screen a number of times, perhaps most famously by Martin Scorsese in 1993 as a film starring Daniel Day-Lewis, Michelle Pfeiffer, Winona Ryder, and Miriam Margolyes. The official description says the series is an “epic and culturally vibrant drama about a tight-knit Indian American community navigating love, desire, and belonging. When a star-crossed romance between a devoted wife and her long lost love comes to light, a scandalous affair is born and new battle lines are drawn in this intensely inter-connected immigrant community.”
