Inside of You Are Two Rachels

Double the Rachel Weiszes? As queer evil genius gynecologist twins? Who perform twisted experiments, swap lovers and generally do crazy/sexy/really messed up shit? Obviously, yes. Double the yes. Rachel will star in a gender-swapped series adaptation of David Cronenberg’s 1988 film by the same name. The original starred Jeremy Irons as the twin doctors Elliot and Beverly Mantle who did crazy/ sexy/really messed up shit. I remember watching it when I was probably too young and being like whooooa. The new Amazon Prime series will keep the characters names and professions but with female mad doctors twins seeking to open a cutting-edge fertility clinic. Possible emphasis on the cutting.

According to a feature in Vogue on the series, the new show will feature “Skins” alum Britne Oldford as Beverly’s lover Genevieve and “Pride & Prejudice” star Jennifer Ehle as a “cutthroat lesbian investor.” So mad, dark, horny, lesbian science? Again, double the yes.

The series will start streaming on Amazon Prime April 21. I am going to keey my eye, or better yet eyes, on this one. (Groan, I know.)
