Cruel Intentions
word of advice : pillager for the Cruel Intentions goggle box show .
Prime Video’sCruel IntentionsTV show has a direct connexion to the 1999 motion-picture show of the same name , but it completely wasted this key link . Directed by Roger Kumble and base on the 1782 novelLes Liaisons Dangereusesby Pierre Choderlos de Laclos , Cruel Intentionsintroduced the audience to flush tone - sib Kathryn Merteuil ( Sarah Michelle Gellar ) and Sebastian Valmont ( Ryan Phillippe ) , who make a bet for their own amusement . As Sebastian is known for seducing and control women , he wants a challenge – and who well than Annette Hargrove ( Reese Witherspoon ) , the school master ’s daughter who is against sexual urge without love .
If Sebastian fail to seduce Annette , Kathryn gets his beloved time of origin car , but if he come through , Kathryn will finally have sex with him . After a failed prequel and a sequel , Cruel Intentionsis now back as a TV series on Prime Video . TheCruel IntentionsTV show takes the same premise as the 1999 movie but with changes to the preferences and the character ’s motivations . As such , theCruel IntentionsTV show stars a different cast except for one actor from the motion picture , but the show altogether waste this key connection .

Ronald is fired , but Kathryn and Sebastian quickly entangle him in their games . They convince Ronald to oppose for Cecile and convince him to write her a dearest letter of the alphabet , which Sebastian later uses to lure her to his bedroom .
A steaming , provocative adolescent drama with improbably eminent stake that you really should n’t view with your parent . Or your fry . Or your footprint brother .
In the television show , Thomas plays Professor Chadwick , who Caroline ’s best friend , CeCe ( Sara Silva ) , convinces to take her in as his assistant . Professor Chadwick and Ronald are unlike characters , so the show missed the chance to make them the same character . Chadwick and Ronald have many similarity , and it would have made sense for Ronald to have become a teacher at a giving university . Even intimately , seeing Ronald go through the same chaos he went through with Cecile but now with CeCe and Caroline would have been interesting , more so now that he ’s in a much higher perspective of world power .
