Netflix is working on an American answer to their hit series, The Crown, with a limited series following the life of US President John F. Kennedy.
With its long-running historical docudrama The Crown winding down, Netflix is turning to American history for a new miniseries. Eric Roth will produce a new miniseries based on the life of US President John F. Kennedy. Variety reports that Roth, the screenwriter of Forrest Gump, Dune, and Killers of the Flower Moon, is attached to write and executive produce the miniseries.
The series will cover the length and breadth of Kennedy's short life, from his Massachusetts boyhood to his service in the US Navy to his rise to political power. Netflix reportedly sees the new series as its equivalent to The Crown, its long-running series on the reign of Queen Elizabeth II. Peter Chernin and Jenno Topping of Chernin Entertainment will also executive produce; the miniseries is currently looking for a showrunner.
Why Is JFK One Of America's Most Cinematic Presidents? The youngest man ever to be elected to the Oval Office, John F. Kennedy had what no President before him had — movie-star good looks, youthful charisma, and a young, photogenic family. All were perfect for the Presidency at the dawn of the TV age.
Even before Kennedy's death, his life story was captured on film in 1963's PT-109, a dramatization of Kennedy's war service in which he was played by Cliff Robertson. Subsequent portrayals have ranged from the straight dramatic to the comedic . Entire movies, as well, have been devoted to unraveling the mysteries surrounding his assassination — most famously, Oliver Stone's JFK.
