Ripley is hired by a wealthy man to travel to Italy to try to convince his wandering son to return home. Ripley's acceptance of the assignment is the first step in a complex life of deceit, fraud and murder.
The new trailer shows just how far Ripley will go to get the job done.
Ripley stars Dakota Fanning as Marge Sherwood and Johnny Flynn as Dickie Greenleaf. The cast also includes Eliot Sumner, Maurizio Lombardi, Margherita Buy and John Malkovich.
The eight-episode limited series, premiering on Thursday, April 4, is directed and written by Steven Zaillian. The series was originally set up for Showtime but moved to Netflix in anticipation of the premium cable network's addition to Paramount+.
