In 1972 he dedicated himself to ready-to-wear and he was a figure unknown to the general public. While meeting and falling in love with Jacques de Bascher (Théodore Pellerin), an ambitious and tormented young dandy, the designer dares to confront his friend (and rival) Yves Saint Laurent (Arnaud Valois), a genius of haute couture supported by the fearsome businessman Pierre Bergé (Alex Lutz).

Jake Gyllenhaal takes the lead in this new adaptation of Scott Turow's novel, which was made into a film in 1990 with Harrison Ford as the protagonist. Rusty Sabich, a Chicago deputy prosecutor, is accused of the murder of a co-worker with whom he had an affair. The legal system he has worked for his entire life turns against him as he attempts to prove his innocence and save his marriage. Is it really necessary to make a new version of this story? We won't know this until we see it, but for now the names of the project are attractive. Aside from Gyllenhaal, David E. Kelley and JJ Abrams are the producers of the miniseries.
