In another turn of strange film to television adaptations, the Bridget Fonda thriller Single White Female is being translated for the small screen. With the current trend of nostalgia hitting the weekly series circuit this past year, nothing is really surprising. Currently, versions of The Exorcist and Lethal Weapon are seeing a relatively positive response from critics and television audiences.
The '90s thriller Single White Female starred Jennifer Jason Leigh and Bridget Fonda in opposing roles. The film did well at the box office and is a constant point of reference in the pop culture medium. The show will move the setting from New York to San Francisco and will be a total reboot of the story from the movie.
If plotted properly, this could be a cool new take on the story.
