Baz Luhrmann to debut extended version of film Australia as six-part TV series Faraway Downs
Recut version, set to premiere at SXSW Sydney, inspired by ‘the way episodic storytelling has been reinvigorated by the streaming world’
Baz Luhrmann will debut the expansion of his 2008 film Australia into a six-part TV series at the closing night of the inaugural SXSW Sydney Screen festival this month.
Faraway Downs is an extended version of the Elvis director’s ambitious wartime romance starring Nicole Kidman, Hugh Jackman, David Gulpilil, Brandon Walters and Bryan Brown, which ran for 165 minutes and was a critical and box office flop, receiving a one-star review in this publication.
Luhrmann created Faraway Downs using original footage from Australia’s cutting room floor. He will present the series on the closing night of the festival on 21 October.
I enjoyed Ahsoka but it felt like I would have gotten a lot more out of it, if I had watched the animated series that came before. There was just too much lore that couldn't be packed into eight episodes. Andor, on the other hand, was a prequel and didn't need the lore, so much, in order to make sense. They threw in a few tidbits but as fan service, not to support the story.Just finished ASHOKA…wow. Great show and enjoyed it as much as Andor.
Which series? I checked yesterday and there 2 or 3 different ones.I enjoyed Ahsoka but it felt like I would have gotten a lot more out of it, if I had watched the animated series that came before.

Just started watching The Fall of the House of Usher. Very interesting so far. On Netflix
Watched another episode tonight. It is brilliantly done. Didn’t expect it. My wife hates the genre, but she really likes it too.Half way through the series.
Loving all the subtle and not-so-subtle EA Poe references.
Annabel Lee, Fortunato, Lenore, Grampus etc.
Oh, and Mark Hamill and Carla Gugino are awesome.

As far as the story in the books goes, I'm told they're only a few books in at this point.Finished up Wheel of Time S2 - later half was much better. Kinda feel the series is done, but who knows.
Watched Hijack. Was entertaining, some parts didn't make much sense.
