In New York City, in 1960, petty con artist Tom Ripley is approached by wealthy shipbuilder Herbert Greenleaf, who mistakes him for a friend of his spoiled, bohemian son, Dickie. Herbert pays Tom to go to Italy to convince Dickie to return home after years abroad, supposedly writing and painting. Tom goes to Atrani, where he meets Dickie and his girlfriend, Marge, who is writing a travel book about Atrani. Tom becomes enamored with the handsome Dickie and his carefree lifestyle.
2"II Seven Mercies"Steven ZaillianSteven ZaillianApril 4, 2024 (2024-04-04)
Tom confesses to Dickie about his father's scheme. Dickie is charmed by Tom's apparent sincerity and invites him to stay at his villa. Tom's friend Freddie Miles, a wealthy young English playwright, encounters the two at a cafe and becomes suspicious of Tom's motives. Freddie invites Dickie and Marge to spend Christmas with him skiing in Cortina. Tom writes to Mr. Greenleaf, claiming he is making progress on getting Dickie to return home, and requests more funds. Back at the villa, thinking he is alone, Tom puts on Dickie's clothing and begins imitating his mannerisms, when Dickie walks in and appears visibly annoyed. Dickie thinks Tom is infatuated with him, though Tom denies it.
3"III Sommerso"Steven ZaillianSteven ZaillianApril 4, 2024 (2024-04-04)
Tom receives a letter from Mr. Greenleaf, dismissing him from his task to persuade Dickie to return home. Dickie also receives a letter from his father telling him to be wary of Tom. Dickie offers to take Tom on a trip to Sanremo. They rent a small boat, and when they are far from shore, Dickie tells him that he and Marge are going to spend Christmas with Freddie in Cortina without him. When Dickie turns around to re-start the motor, Tom beats him to death with an oar. He ties the corpse to the boat's anchor, after removing and pocketing Dickie's personal accessories. When Tom attempts to dump the body overboard, his feet get caught in the anchor rope and he nearly drowns. He survives, and succeeds in heaving Dickie's body into the water. Back on shore, Tom submerges the boat, and wearing Dickie's ring, leaves Sanremo.

Tom returns to Atrani and collects Dickie's personal effects, telling Marge that Dickie is now in Rome. Marge is skeptical. Tom sells some of Dickie's valuables and approaches a small-time mafioso, Carlo, about brokering the sale of Dickie's treasured sailboat. They disagree about their respective commissions, but eventually come to terms. Tom takes an apartment in Rome, where, using a doctored passport and having learned to forge Dickie's signature, he assumes his dead friend's identity and begins living his privileged life.
5"V Lucio"Steven ZaillianSteven ZaillianApril 4, 2024 (2024-04-04)
In Rome, Tom lives off Dickie's money. Using Dickie's portable typewriter (which has a distinctive "e" out of horizontal alignment), Tom composes letters to Marge and Dickie's parents to create the illusion that Dickie is still alive, but traveling while he takes stock of his life. Freddie, looking for Dickie, arrives unexpectedly in Rome at Tom's apartment and sees that he is impersonating Dickie. He knows about Tom's history as a petty criminal in New York, and intends to tell the authorities about Tom's scheme. As he heads for the door, Tom bludgeons him to death with a heavy glass ashtray. He drags the body downstairs, stuffs it in Freddie's Fiat, and leaves the car on a country road just out of town, before coming back to the apartment to clean up the bloodstains left on the stairs and elevator. He steals Freddie's ID documents and discards them down a sewer, before finally relaxing in his room. Unbeknownst to him, the apartment's resident cat leaves paw prints stained with Freddie's blood on some of the apartment stairs.

Based on a tip from Freddie's lover, Max Yoder, Inspector Ravini interrogates Tom, assuming he is Dickie. Meanwhile, in Sanremo, the partially burned, submerged, blood-stained boat is discovered, further complicating the case. In Atrani, Marge discovers that Dickie's sailboat was sold and reads in the papers about Freddie's death. She goes to Rome to confront Tom about Dickie's whereabouts. Tom insists that Dickie has again left for a new destination. After Marge leaves, Tom decides to go to Palermo.

Tom, writing as Dickie, resolves the matter with a letter, convincing the bank there was no fraud.

8"VIII Narcissus"Steven ZaillianSteven ZaillianApril 4, 2024 (2024-04-04)
In Venice, Tom rents a palazzo under his real name and informs the Venetian police he is alive. When Ravini arrives to interview him about the disappearance of Dickie and Freddie's murder, Tom successfully disguises himself so he doesn't look like the man passing as Dickie who Ravini met in Rome. Tom is welcomed by Venice's high society, who are curious about Dickie, whom the press has dubbed the "fugitive playboy." Marge arrives and they attend a party together thrown by Pegeen Guggenheim. Herbert arrives in Italy and accepts the story that a despondent Dickie, depressed over his failure as an artist and involvement in Freddie's death, took his own life. Tom buys a doctored passport, changes identities and moves abroad. Marge finishes her book about Atrani and sends a copy to Ravini. Thumbing through the book, the inspector is shocked when he sees a photo of the real Dickie Greenleaf.

On September 25, 2019, it was announced that Andrew Scott had been cast as Tom Ripley in Ripley, a television series to be adapted from Patricia Highsmith's Ripley novels. A series order of eight episodes was commissioned by Showtime, to be written and directed by Steven Zaillian, who pitched the series to the network. [4] [5] [6] [7] He explained that adapting the material as a series rather than a feature film "allowed me to be more faithful to the story, tone, and subtleties of Highsmith's work. [I] tried to approach my adaptation in a way I imagined she might herself." [8] Zaillian serves as executive producer alongside Garrett Basch, Guymon Casady, Ben Forkner, Sharon Levy, and Philipp Keel, with Scott as a producer. [1] The series was co-produced by Showtime and Endemol Shine North America in association with Entertainment 360 and Filmrights. [1] Though designed as a limited series, further seasons are a possibility. [9]

Casting

The casting of Scott as Tom Ripley was announced in September 2019. [4] [5] Johnny Flynn was cast as Dickie Greenleaf in January 2020, [10] [11] and in March 2021, Dakota Fanning was cast as Marge Sherwood. [12] [13] Eliot Sumner joined the cast in a recurring role in December 2021. [14] John Malkovich, who portrayed Ripley in the 2002 film Ripley's Game , was cast as Reeves Minot, a supporting character in Highsmith's later Ripley novels. [15]

Scott said of his portrayal, "You don't play the opinions, the previous attitudes that people might have about Tom Ripley ... I have to have the courage to create our own version and my own understanding of the character ... It was a heavy part to play. I found it mentally and physically really hard". [8] He described understanding what Ripley does as "arduous", explaining, "Certain things I can understand, but other things—it's actually the blankness that's sometimes hard to engage with." [8]

Filming

Shooting was originally planned to begin in Italy in September 2020, [16] but was later delayed to 2021 due to COVID-19. [13] Robert Elswit was the cinematographer of all eight episodes, and shot with Arri Alexa LF digital cameras. [17] Ripley is presented in black and white. The only things shown in color in the series are the red bloody paw prints of a cat on the steps at the end of episode 5. [18] Zaillian explained, "The edition of the Ripley book I had on my desk had an evocative black-and-white photograph on the cover. As I was writing, I held that image in my mind. Black and white fits this story—and it's gorgeous." [8]

Release

Ripley was initially announced to be broadcast on Showtime, [4] [5] but in February 2023, Deadline Hollywood reported that the series would be moving to Netflix. [9] It was released on April 4, 2024. [2]

Reception

Audience viewership

Ripley debuted at number six on Netflix's Top 10 TV English titles for the tracking week of 1-7 April 2024 with 16.9 million hours viewed. [19] On the following week, it remained at the same position and garnered 18.4 million viewing hours. [20]

Critical response

Scott's portrayal was called the best Ripley by some reviewers. Pride 07 (15272510975) (cropped).jpg
Scott's portrayal was called the best Ripley by some reviewers.

The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported an 86% approval rating with an average rating of 8.0/10, based on 135 critic reviews. The website's critics consensus reads, "Bathed in opulent black and white with a reptilian Andrew Scott holding the screen hostage, Steven Zaillian's sumptuous reinterpretation of Ripley draws fresh blood from Patricia Highsmith's insidious social climber." [24] On Metacritic, the series holds a weighted average score of 76 out of 100 based on 43 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews". [25]

Matt Schimkowitz of The A.V. Club gave the series an A− and said, "The fun of Ripley is always in how he gets away with his crimes, and Zaillian doesn't forget that." [26] Reviewing the series for The Mercury News , Randy Myers gave a rating of 3.5/4 and commented, "While some might be put off by Ripley's measured tempo and its detached icicle of a protagonist, noir fans won't be and will admire how effectively it revives an often overworked genre." [27] Linda Holmes of NPR described the series as "A meticulously built piece of filmmaking that references classic noir and Hitchcock as well as Italian cinema greats, and just looking at it shot by shot is a profound pleasure." [28] Judy Berman of Time wrote, "Scott... may be more than two decades older than his character as conceived by Highsmith (he doesn't look it) but has nonetheless given us the first definitive onscreen Ripley." [29]
