Armistead Maupin's Tales of the City TV show on Netflix: (canceled or renewed?)

Netflix is heading to San Francisco. Today, the streaming service announced they’ve ordered a follow-up series to Armistead Maupin’s Tales of the City.

Based on the novels of Maupin, the original 1993 mini-series followed a group of people living in San Francisco during the 1970s and ’80s. The cast included Laura Linney, Olympia Dukakis, Barbara Garrick, Thomas Gibson, and Billy Campbell. The series spawned two sequels, More Tales of the City (1998) and Further Tales of the City (2001).

Netflix‘s Tales of the City revival will feature the return of original stars Laura Linney and Olympia Dukakis alongside newcomer Ellen Page. The 10-part limited series is slated to debut in 2019.

NETFLIX RETURNS TO 28 BARBARY LANE WITH “ARMISTEAD MAUPIN’S TALES OF THE CITY”

Laura Linney and Olympia Dukakis Return; Ellen Page Joins the Cast; Working Title TV and NBCUniversal International Studios Produce 10-Part Limited Series

Armistead Maupin’s Tales of the City is a 10-part Netflix original limited series, expected to start production later this year and debut in 2019.

Academy Award nominee and Emmy-, SAG- and Golden Globe-Award winning actress Laura Linney and Academy Award and Golden Globe winner Olympia Dukakis will reprise their roles as Mary Ann Singleton and Anna Madrigal. Barbara Garrick also to return. Additional cast to be announced.

Academy Award, BAFTA, Golden Globe and SAG Award nominee Ellen Page will join the cast as Shawna.

Lauren Morelli (WGA nominee; co-EP and writer Orange is The New Black) serves as showrunner/executive producer and writer.

Armistead Maupin will executive produce; Alan Poul returns to direct and executive produce. Laura Linney also executive produces.

Armistead Maupin’s Tales of the City is a Working Title Television and NBCUniversal International studios production for Netflix. Working Title’s Andrew Stearn, Liza Chasin, Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner also executive produce. Michael Cunningham will serve as a consulting producer.

Quotes:

“I couldn’t be more excited about this new brand-new incarnation of Tales. It’s set in present-day San Francisco with all the joys and complications that might suggest for the residents of 28 Barbary Lane,’ said Maupin. “Mrs. Madrigal’s tenants, both old and new, will be entangled in delicious new adventures and ever-expanding possibilities for love.”

“The magical, vivid world that Armistead Maupin built in Tales of the City is one that offered so many – particularly the LGBTQ+ community – a home for the first time. For many, Tales was the first time they saw themselves on screen,” said writer and showrunner Lauren Morelli. “I am humbled to now find my own home within Tales and to continue telling Armistead’s stories.”

Poul added, “For me, the opportunity to come back to a series I started work on 25 years ago is the homecoming of a lifetime. There’s never been a better moment to reignite Armistead’s timeless take on family and community, and I’m thrilled to be collaborating with such a brilliant mix of old friends and new.”

Logline: Based on the books by Armistead Maupin, this next chapter – Armistead Maupin’s Tales of the City – follows Mary Ann (Laura Linney), who returns home to San Francisco and is reunited with her daughter (Ellen Page) and ex-husband Brian, twenty years after leaving them behind to pursue her career. Fleeing the midlife crisis that her picture perfect Connecticut life created, Mary Ann returns home to her chosen family and will quickly be drawn back into the orbit of Anna Madrigal (Olympia Dukakis) and the residents of 28 Barbary Lane.”

I definitely did watch ALL 3 Tale series when they were televised. I loved them so much I bought all the series(combining of VCR tapes and DVDs). I don’t have Netfix now but when this start to air, I will sign up just to watch this series.

I’m very excited about this. I’ve read all the books, watched all the previous series so I’m thrilled to find out where things will go in this new iteration. I hope that Netflix buys the rights to stream the previous series. I’d love to see them all again before the new series begins.

No Bill Campbell, though. Because SPOILER ALERT. I was so excited when I heard He’s be playing my favourite character. Favourite actor plays favourite character. Perfect. But not for too long … and the passage of time pretty much rules out flashbacks, unless they have any deleted scenes they could use *sob*
