David Cronenberg's Dead Ringers becomes a gender-swapped TV show starring Rachel Weisz. The show hits Prime Video on April 21.
Rachel Weisz plays a pair of twins in first look images from Prime Video’s Dead Ringers TV show. David Cronenberg’s original 1988 thriller Dead Ringers starred Jeremy Irons as a pair of identical twin gynecologists becoming involved with a film actress seeking fertility treatments. Now Dead Ringers is getting a reboot show, with Weisz playing gender-swapped versions of the original movie’s mysterious mutation-obsessed twin doctors.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY The Dead Ringers reboot was actually announced all the way back in 2020, and only now have first look images from the project arrived . 7 Images Close Featuring Weisz in her dual role as Beverly and Elliot Mantle, the images are every bit as mysterious and vaguely creepy as one might expect from a reboot of a Cronenberg thriller.Everything We Know About Dead Ringers Co-written by Cronenberg and Norman Snider, the original Dead Ringers was inspired by the lives of Stewart and Cyril Marcus, a pair of real-life twin gynecologists who practiced together in New York until they both died at the same time in 1975.
The brief Dead Ringers synopsis somewhat enigmatically reads, “The Mantle twins, identical from head to toe, are on a mission to change the way women give birth, starting in Manhattan.” Alongside the headlining star Weisz, the very solid Dead Ringers cast also includes Britne Oldford as Genevieve, Poppy Liu as Greta, Michael Chernus as Tom, Jennifer Ehle as Rebecca and Emily Meade as Susan.
The six-episode series boasts some strong directorial talent as well, with Sean Durkin , Karena Evans , Karyn Kusama , and Lauren Wolkstein splitting helming duties. Dead Ringers is slated to hit Prime Video on April 21, 2023.
