If there are two names guaranteed to generate a visceral reaction on all corners of the internet above all others, then the conversation would almost certainly include disgraced producer Harvey Weinstein and fallen A-list actor Johnny Depp, so the brains behind the freshly-announced TV adaptation of Chocolat have a fair amount of stigma to overcome.
The duo were at the peak of their respective powers when director Lasse Hallström’s feature-length take on Joanne Harris’ novel initially hit the big screen back in late 2000, and it turned out to be a monster-sized success. On top of netting in excess of $150 million at the box office, Chocolat also scooped five Academy Award nominations – including one for Best Picture.
