The Haunting of Bly Manor is based upon Henry James’ classic gothic horror novella The Turn of the Screw, which revolves around a young governess caring for two orphans in an old country mansion, who becomes convinced that the estate is haunted.
Pedretti enjoyed a career breakthrough with her role as Nell in The Haunting of Hill House, and has since secured roles in Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, the Apple anthology series Amazing Stories, and the second season of Netflix’s You.
The Haunting of Bly Manor is slated to hit Netflix in 2020, with Mike Flanagan (Doctor Sleep, Gerald’s Game) returning as showrunner.
