‘Revenge’ Is Being Rebooted Feat. An Absolutely Batshit New Storyline & Returning OG Character

Remember that melodramatic, OTT show called Revenge about a woman on a quest to seek vengeance against whoever killed her father? Well, much like every other show and movie ever, it’s being rebooted.

Deadline reveals that the reboot will feature a young Latin immigrant who arrives in the lush Malibu, hellbent on seeking ~revenge~ on a Sackler-esque pharmaceutical dynasty, responsible for the death of her biochemist mother, the destruction of her loving family, and a global epidemic.

Production sources reveal that a certain character from the OG series will be returning to link the reboot to its predecessor, although said character is yet to be revealed.

Revenge ended with vengeful sis Emily (Emily VanCamp) being sprung from jail, so she very well could be the returning character, offering spy pointers to the new gal.

Tech wiz Nolan Ross (Gabriel Mann) could also be the one or his mate, Louise Virginia Ellis (Elena Satine).

We know for sure that it won’t be Victoria Grayson (Madeleine Stow) ‘coz (spoiler alert) that bitch got what was coming to her in the final season.

Some fun facts about the show that I didn’t realise until delving into it recently:

  1. It was inspired by Alexandre Dumas’ famed novel The Count of Monte Cristo, and
  2. Hole frontwoman and wife of the late Kurt Cobain, Courtney Love played an assassin in the show’s final season.

One of ABC’s most popular drama series of this decade, you can relive the madness at your leisure ‘coz the entire series is now streaming on Stan.
