Holes is an upcoming American web television series, for Disney+. It is a loose adaptation of the book of the same name by Louis Sachar.
Synopsis[]
In this reimagining of the beloved 1998 book from Louis Sachar, a teenage girl (Rudolph) is sent to a detention camp where the ruthless Warden (Kinnear) forces the campers to dig holes for a mysterious purpose.[1]
Cast[]
- Greg Kinnear as The Warden: The Warden is the boss at Camp Yucca, with a flair for manipulation and getting the upper hand on his campers. He has created a camp ideology to explain the virtue of having girls dig holes, but this is actually a ruse; he is really forcing the girls to labor for a mysterious purpose.[1]
- Aidy Bryant as Sissy: Sissy is overflowing with camp counselor energy. She seems like a trustworthy big sister figure to the girls, but as a true believer of The Warden’s philosophy, her allegiance lies with him.[1]
- Shay Rudolph as Hayley: Hayley arrives at Camp Yucca having been wrongly accused. She’s full of heart and tired of her family’s belief that fate is fixed; her arrival at Camp Yucca will inject new hope and optimism into her campmates.[1]
- Flor Delis Alicea as Queenie: Queenie is the tough queen bee, a seemingly fearless leader whose hard edges cover up her vulnerability.[1]
- Anire Kim Amoda as Thumbelina: Thumbelina is bold and not scared of anything or anyone, not even The Warden.[1]
- Noah Cottrell as Kitch: Kitch works in the kitchen at Camp Yucca. He is a stickler for the rules, but we’ll soon learn there is secret, deeper reason he’s intent on maintaining his job.[1]
- Iesha Daniels as Mars: Mars is brainy, charismatic, no-nonsense, and a bit of a player among the queer female campers.[1]
- Sophie Dieterlen as Sticky: Sticky is an ever-daydreaming girly-girl with a kind heart and an abiding passion for clothes, but she can be serious and driven when she needs to.[1]
- Alexandra Doke as Eyeball: Eyeball is a mischievous, zany artist who sees the world in her own idiosyncratic way and often lightens a heavy mood with a joke.[1]
- Maeve Press as Shrimp: Shrimp is the youngest and smallest of the campers, and her unusual, blunt nature makes her an outcast amongst the girls.[1]
Trivia[]
- Louis Sachar had heavy involvement with the film adaptation and even wrote the screenplay. For this series, Sachar only has minor involvement. Conversely, Percy Jackson and the Olympians and the new Diary of a Wimpy Kid film series both have the original authors heavily involved.
- The series is a "gender bent" re-adaptation of the novel. Contrary to popular belief, this is actually the first time Disney has done anything of this caliber. Previous adaptations or projects only featured minute changes to a similar degree.
