NETFLIX ANNOUNCES 2025 STREAMING

Il Gattopardo will stream on Netflix next year

Now, this one was shot back in 2023 and we have been waiting for almost two years for it to air, but we will have to wait a bit longer as it has now been officially confirmed for streaming in 2025, hopefully in the beginning of the next year. Netflix has revealed first poster for their  THE LEOPARD historical series which is the small screen adaptation of  Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa's famous classic novel Il Gattopardo which was translated into more than 40 languages around the world. Tom Shankland directed the six episode saga which was previously adapted into a movie by famous Italian filmmaker Visconti! Thousands of extras and custom made costumes have been used in this ambitious production.

 

WHAT IS THE STORY?

While Sicily is struggling in the turmoil of the Risorgimento in 1860, the Prince of Salina Fabrizio Corbera (Kim Rossi Stuart) reigns over his family and his possessions, convinced that even these disorders are destined to pass. He hasn’t come to terms with the idealism of young people like his nephew Tancredi (Saul Nanni), who joins the rebels risking his own life, or the ambitions of men like Sedara, a vulgar man who rides change by pandering to the nascent power of mafia criminal organizations and intends to use his beautiful daughter Angelica (Deva Cassel) to get what he wants. At Don Fabrizio’s side remains Concetta (Benedetta Porcaroli), his favourite daughter, who shares his intelligence and foresight. Her happiness will eventually be sacrificed in an attempt to ensure the survival of the power and of the name of the lineage. You can check out the old announcement teaser below:
