Women of historical importance deserve to have their stories told too, and Zelda Sayre Fitzgerald, novelist, socialite, and wife of “The Great Gatsby” author F. Scott Fitzgerald, has plenty of history for Amazon to draw from in their new series about the the famous flapper. As one of the online streamer’s recent pilots that were put through audience tests, “Z: The Beginning of Everything,” will soon drop with a full first season, and the new trailer hints at a jazzy, pulpy drama.

Starring Christina Ricci as the titular Zelda, the bio-series series follows the life of the Southern Belle turned rebellious 1920s flapper, writer, and feminist. As we previously reported, “The story starts before the brilliant, beautiful and talented Southern Belle meets then-unpublished writer F. Scott Fitzgerald (David Hoflin,) and moves through their turbulent love affair and their marriage. ‘Z’ is written by Dawn Prestwich and Nicole Yorkin (‘The Killing’), directed by Tim Blake Nelson (‘Anesthesia’), and executive produced by Ricci, Pamela Koffler (‘Still Alice’) and Christine Vachon (“One Hour Photo“) of Killer Films. Show guest stars David Strathairn, Kristine Nielsen (‘Savages’), Maya Kazan (‘The Knick’), Sarah Schenkkan (‘30 Rock’), Jamie Anne Allman (‘The Killing’) and Holly Curran (‘Alpha House’).”

Ricci seems born to play this character. And while Jennifer Lawrence and Scarlett Johansson both have big-screen biopics of Zelda in the works, Ricci’s depiction will hit audiences eyes first when the series premieres on January 27, 2017.
