Info in Movie News | Rachel Weisz is back on the small screen with Vladimir, her latest project, the limited series that is soon to be streamed on Netflix. The show is crafted around the novel of Julia May Jonas that was received with critical acclaim and even more it introduces an exciting narrative full of tension, passion, and dark humor.

Weisz will take on the role of a professor whose work goes spiraling out of control when she becomes obsessed with her new co-worker. Vladimir, what with its tight atmosphere and thorough character studies, is nearly certain to be a hugely interesting piece for Netflix users.

Kate Robin, renowned for her works on Dead to Me and Six Feet Under, is going to be the person in charge of the whole show and will co-write it with Jonas. The project also involves Sharon Horgan of Merman Productions and Jason Winer and Jon Radler of Small Dog Picture Company as executive producers.

In recent years, Netflix has increasingly relied on the limited series format which offers a dense story without the need for season extensions. The success of series like Zero Day and The Queen’s Gambit proves this strategy effectively engages viewers. With Vladimir, Netflix appears keen to repeat similar success with a provocative storyline and world-class performance from Rachel Weisz.

In addition to being known for blockbuster hits like The Mummy and Black Widow, Weisz has also demonstrated her skills in complex roles through The Favourite and Dead Ringers. Now, through Vladimir, she returns to the challenging and stimulating genre of psychological thrillers. 

Will Vladimir be next year's most anticipated Netflix series? The success factors for this new show will include a strong creative team and an appealing story line, which are both provided for it to become the next hit on the streaming platform.
