Jeremy Strong Leads 'Boys From Brazil' Netflix Series

Jeremy Strong is set to star in the Netflix adaptation of Ira Levin's novel 'The Boys from Brazil', marking his first major TV role since 'Succession'. The series is developed by Peter Morgan, known for 'The Crown', and produced by Suzanne Mackie. Strong will portray Nazi hunter Lieberman, originally played by Laurence Olivier in the 1978 film adaptation, as he uncovers a chilling conspiracy involving Dr. Josef Mengele's plans to establish a new Reich using cloning technology in Paraguay. The project underscores the persistent relevance of themes such as antisemitism and the legacy of the Third Reich. This adaptation is Strong's return to television amidst Oscar buzz for his role in 'The Apprentice'. Netflix has not yet commented on the release date or further details of the series.
