Dangerous Liaisons: Trailer, synopsis, and ensemble cast
Netflix's upcoming romcom, Dangerous Liaisons, is set to premiere on Friday, July 8 at 12:00 AM PT/3:00 AM ET. The official trailer for the film was released in May and featured Celene at her new elitist school, where she gets stuck into a dangerous twisted bet between Tristan and Vanessa.
The synopsis for the film reads:
"Célène, at 17, is idealistic. She believes in absolute love, and is more interested in reading than in social networks. She is getting ready for living apart from her fiancé, Pierre, for a while, leaving Paris for Biarritz. Very quickly, she has to face the evil elite of her new school, ruled over by the former big-screen star and Instagram queen Vanessa and the celebrity surfer Tristan, who’s both dangerous and seductive. Célène falls in love with him, but is a long way from suspecting that she is at the centre of a cruel bet between Tristan and Vanessa. Just how far will they go?"
This film is a similar adaptation of the '90s classic Cruel Intentions starring Sarah Michelle Gellar, Ryan Phillippe, Reese Witherspoon, and Selma Blair, which was also an adaptation of Choderlos de Laclos’s Les Liaisons dangereuses.
