Prime Video ordered the adaptation this time around for an eight-episode series, that will start production in June in Toronto. The first time, it came from NBC during the 2016 season.
While chatting with Variety, Sarah explained why she won’t be involved this time around.
“I’ve learned a lesson with that, which is it’s a very difficult process. And eventually, or inevitably, you’re going to be let down,” she shared. “Because some people want a new [version], some people want this, and my place in something like that only makes you compare it to the original. And if there’s a new take and new whatever, then they get a chance to stand on their own.”
Sarah had starred in the 2016 version, reprising her role as Kathryn. She has previously spoke about why she was grateful it didn’t work out.
