'Les Miserables' Event Series on BBC Drops The Weinstein Company

A six-part miniseries adaptation of "Les Miserables" is heading to the small screen. Its production originally involved BBC Studios, Lookout Point and The Weinstein Company (TWC) but the latter company was recently dropped from the project following Harvey Weinstein's sexual harassment scandal.

"House of Cards" writer Andrew Davies wrote BBC's adaptation of "Les Miserables."

Deadline confirmed that TWC will no longer be producing nor distributing "Les Miserables" for U.S. television. Instead, BBC Worldwide will take over the markets outside of the U.K. but TWC's departure won't affect the show's production.

Weinstein was heavily involved in developing "Les Miserables" for television in 2016.  He said the upcoming miniseries will be a "modern and yet respectful" take on Victor Hugo's celebrated classic novel. Weinstein also said that the TV version will be "completely different" from the popular stage musical.
