Alicia Vikander is set to star alongside Aaron Taylor-Johnson in the “Enigma Variations” TV series at Netflix, Variety has confirmed.
The show was originally reported to be in the works at Netflix in January 2025, with the streamer picking it up to series in March 2026 with Taylor-Johnson in the lead role. The show is based on the novel of the same name by “Call Me by Your Name” author André Aciman.
The official logline states that the show follows Paul, “a man remade by the lovers who ignite and undo him across ten transformative years. It’s an intimate yet sweeping portrait of masculinity, sexuality, and modern love—and in a world of endless choices, it asks the question: will we know when we’ve found the one?”
Vikander will star as Claire.
Amanda Kate Shuman is attached to write, executive produce, and serve as showrunner. Oliver Hermanus will direct and executive produce. Media Res is the studio, with Michael Ellenberg, Christina Malach, and Lindsey Springer executive producing on behalf of the company. Aciman will executive produce as well alongside Monica Levinson.
