Masterful, Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa’s masterpiece has arrived on Netflix as the most anticipated series of 2025
More than a portrait of a declining aristocracy, this reinterpretation of “The Leopard” reframes Lampedusa’s classic as a disquieting mirror of the cycles of power that persist through the centuries. Set in 19th-century Sicily, the series reveals how revolutions that promise renewal often merely reshape the status quo, preserving privilege under new disguises — an unsettling reflection of today’s political machinery.
