Andrew Scott got a shout-out from “Fleabag” creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge while she accepted the Emmy for Best Comedy Series on September 22, and now he’s getting another great tip of the hat. The affectionately dubbed Hot Priest will next play the iconic role of Tom Ripley in a new Showtime series from Steven Zaillian, who will write and direct all eight episodes of the season.
“We are so thrilled to have the supremely talented filmmaker, Steve Zaillian, adapt the singular saga of Tom Ripley from Patricia Highsmith’s novels as an ongoing series for Showtime,” said Showtime entertainment president Gary Levine in a statement. “With Andrew Scott, whose charisma knows no bounds, inhabiting the iconic lead role, we feel confident that this will be a special one.”
