Louisa May Alcott's YA novel Little Women was an instant classic — so much so that it was turned into a movie (a few times!) with the most popular starring Winona Ryder, Kirsten Dunst, Susan Sarandon, Christian Bale, and more big names back in the '90s. But now, that tale we all know and love of the March sisters growing up in mid-19th century Massachusetts just got weird.
It's been annouced that the CW is adapting the original book into a new TV series about — wait for it — "half-sisters Jo, Meg, Beth, and Amy trying to survive the dystopic streets of Philadelphia to unravel a conspiracy." Wait, what? Evidently the original storyline needed to be spiced up for the small screen, because in this version they're not just "trying not to kill each other" in a good ol' fashioned sisterly way. They're actually trying not to kill each other.
Even though this novel has undergone a whole lot of adaptions in the past, this one is by far the craziest. There's no word on who will be starring in this version, but we hope they're ready for some serious Hunger Games-type battles.
