pride and prejudice

Jeffrey Katzenberg’s upcoming streaming service Quibi continues to have a more and more intriguing slate that it really has us chomping at the bit as to what all of this will look like.

This latest addition of a potential series, Trip, from the hysterical Joel Kim Booster (along with Jax Media producing) with his modern day take on Jane Austen’s landmark novel Pride & Prejudice only bolsters their Quibi’s profile from where we’re standing. Already, we’re enjoying imagining Joel’s razor sharp writing within a Pride & Prejudice framework.

Hopefully, we’ll get a glimpse of Trip, pending a series order or not, and everything else that’s peaked our interest at Quibi relatively soon.

When mashing up zombies and Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, Seth Grahame-Smith scored a hit novel with Pride and Prejudice and Zombies 5 years ago.

Now, in 2014, the official film adaptation of the novel has just cast Lily James, Sam Riley, and Bella Heathcote. In addition to that, you should also note that the script is written by both Burr Steers and the Oscar nominated writer/director David O. Russell.

So, we’re guessing that this will bring more to the table than Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter, the last film adapted from a Seth Grahame-Smith book.
