Apple TV+ is presently working on a TV reboot of the popular 1990s film, The Prince of Tides. Starring Nick Nolte and Barbra Streisand, the romantic drama is about a man who falls in love with his sister’s psychiatrist as they work through issues from their troubled childhood.
Streisand not only starred but directed the 1991 film which was nominated for seven Oscars (but didn’t win any). The movie was written by Becky Johnson and Pat Conroy and is based on Pat Conroy’s 1986 novel with the same name.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the remake will be a TV series written by The Help’s Tate Taylor and will feature an A-list lineup of cast members. Tate Taylor has worked on notable projects like Get on Up, The Girl on the Train, and Breaking News Yuba County.
Production will start this summer as scripts and casting offers are currently finalizing. The series, like the movie, will also be based on The Prince of Tides novel.
No word yet on when the series will arrive on the Apple TV+ platform. It will likely be some time as the show hasn’t begun production yet. Apple hasn’t officially commented as the series is still in the development phase.
