Set in a Manhattan prep school, Sarah’s character Kathryn makes a bet with her stepbrother to sleep with the headmaster’s daughter.

However, Sebastian ends up falling in love with Annette.

According to reports, Amazon‘s Freevee has ordered an eight-episode series based on the film.

And insiders say there’s a chance it may be promoted to Amazon Prime Video.

TVLine reports production is due to begin in the month, but it’s unclear who is in the cast and if the original stars will be back.

Amazon declined to comment when approached.

In 2016 a TV pilot was filmed which was due to serve as the prequel and starred Sarah Michelle Gellar.

But it failed to attract broadcasters and ultimately did not make it to air.
