We Were Liars is the next adaptation by Prime Video that will be coming in series format and hopes to be as successful as Maxton Hall with Damian Hardung, especially since it is based on a popular book duology.

Nzingha Stewart (Little Fires Everywhere, Inventing Anna and Grey’s Anatomy) has been chosen as one of the directors and will carry out the pilot episode of the first season, which does not yet have an official release date.

The original story was written by E. Lockhart, who will also serve as a screenwriter for the drama, along with Carina Adly MacKenzie and Julie Plec. Despite still being in development, it is already one of the most anticipated titles.
