Dynasty reboot in works

Joan Crawford's classic primetime drama "Dynasty" is going to get a "modernised reboot".
The CW has officially ordered the reboot from "The OC's" Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage and original producers Esther and Richard Shapiro, reported Digital Spy.
The new version of "Dynasty" will still be the story of warring wealthy families the Carringtons and the Colbys, but it will feature a diverse cast.
"(The series) will be told primarily through the perspectives of two women at odds: Fallon Carrington - daughter of billionaire Blake Carrington - and her soon-to-be stepmother, Cristal - a Hispanic woman marrying into this WASP family and America's most powerful class.

"In an age where dynasties appear everywhere - from reality TV to the polling booths - this epic drama features the one percent in all its glitz and gloss, while exposing the dark underbelly: a corrupt world built on backroom deals, betrayal, and, in some cases murder," the synopsis read.
