“In a world of privilege and glamour, the friendship of two young women transcends their class as they prepare to complete their education and be introduced into vampiric society. One as a powerful member of royalty , the other as a half-vampire guardian, who is trained to stand up to the savage “Strigoi” who threaten to destroy his society… That’s if royalty doesn’t do it first.”
Julie Plec (“The Vampire Diaries”) is responsible for the new version.
Plec and Marguerite MacIntyre are joining as showrunners for the series, whose first season will feature ten episodes.
In total, the original “Vampire Academy” saga contains 6 books.
In 2014, an adaptation of the first book was released in theaters, but the film was a flop with critics and audiences alike, earning just 16% approval ratings on Rotten Tomatoes and grossing a whopping $15.6 million. US dollars around the world.
