2026 PERIOD SET NETFLIX TV SERIES AND FILMS FROM AUSTRALIA: MY BRILLIANT CAREER, EAST OF EDEN, THE MOSQUITO BOWL

 NETFLIX AUSTRALIAN SERIES 
EAST OF EDEN TV ADAPTATION 
A small screen adaptation of a classic coming to Netflix in 2026 will be a contemporary reimagining of John Steinbeck’s classic novel shot exploring the mult igenerational saga of the Trask family with Florence Poo, Christopher Abbott, Mike Faist, Hoon Lee, Tracy Letts, Martha Plimpton, Ciarán Hinds leading the cast. It is set in California’s Salinas Valley over a period that stretches from the Civil War to end of World War I.
 
 1901 SET MY BRILLIANT CAREER
A TV adaptation of Miles Franklin’s novel follows Sybylla (Phillipa Northeast), a shockingly modern young woman in 1901. Australia with one searing ambition: to be a writer. With an irrepressible taste for fun, the choice between adventure and a safe marriage is easy, until she falls in love. Should Sybylla marry, or should she throw herself to the winds of fate and risk a creative life? Anna Chancellor also stars.
 

WW2 THE MOSQUITO BOWL
Will be a Second World War drama based on the true story of four college football stars who enlist in the Marines following the attack on Pearl Harbor. As they prepare for the brutal invasion of Okinawa, they participate in a legendary game featuring some of the greatest players in history — a game that, for many, will be their last. The cast led by Nicholas Galitzine and Bill Skarsgård is under the helm of director Peter Berg.
