Netflix series sets disastrous record despite being hailed a ‘masterpiece’
While Andrew Scott’s Ripley has stunned viewers with its gripping reimagining of a 90s classic, the figures are telling a much sadder story.
The Talented Mr Ripley, starring Jude Law and Matt Damon, has been transformed into a gritty black-and-white mini-series with Fleabag’s Hot Priest at the helm.
Viewers have hailed the Netflix series as a ‘masterpiece’ with an impressive 82% Rotten Tomatoes score to boot.
Originally a 1995 novel, the story follows grafter Tom Ripley as he inserts himself into the life of Dickie Greenleaf, the vagabond son of a wealthy family.
