Orlando Bloom to Lead Cast in TV Series Based on This Must Be The Place

Amazon Studios is developing a series adaptation of Maggie O’Farrell’s novel This Must Be The Place, with Orlando Bloom set to star as an American linguist. The story follows Daniel Sullivan, a New Yorker living in the Irish countryside with his reclusive ex-film star wife, Claudette. Their idyllic life is threatened by a secret from Daniel’s past, which has unexpected consequences in their present. The series explores the redemptive power of love and the impact of past choices. Suzanne Heathcote, known for her work on Killing Eve and Fear The Walking Dead, will write and executive produce the series. In addition, a film adaptation of the book is also in development by writer-director Chloé Zhao.
