Classic detective series to be rebooted – 65 YEARS after it first aired

A CLASSIC detective drama series is set to be given a modern reboot, with an updated retelling.

French detective series Maigret is being brought to life with a 21st century update, 65 years after it first aired.

The series is based on the books by Georges Simenon, and features Parisian Chief Inspector Jules Maigret as he solves crime in the French capital.

The new series sees actor Benjamin Wainwright take on the role, and viewers may recognise him from previous roles in BBC‘s The Split and ITV‘s Belgravia.

The detective crime series has previously been adapted for the screen, with Mr Bean actor Rowan Atkinson starring for two season with ITV in 2016.

The detective drama was also brought to life in 1960 for a BBC TV series, with Rupert Davies taking on the lead role.

The classic story sees the french detective in a different era, complete with a trademark pipe and hat.

However the new series is much more modern, with first-look photos showing Wainwright wearing a shirt and coat with the Eiffel Tower in the background for the drama.

The new series will position Maigret as an “unconventional young detective with something to prove” as he emerges as “a rising star in the Police Judiciaire”.

Despite being a more modern version, the series is still expected to stay close to the original narrative and will feature “the glitzy upper-class world of luxury hotels and mansions to local bourgeois bistros and bars and the underground haunts of the professionally criminal”.

The synopsis adds: “Maigret strives above all to unravel our motivations.

“He is good at this not because he is a genius, or has special methods, but because he listens – he doesn’t solve crimes so much as he solves people.”
