"...Atwell: It's The Prisoner television series with Ian McKellen and Jim Caviezel.
Question: Okay. Now, is this based on the original?
Atwell: Yes. It's a weird sci-fi - half of it will be based in New York, though, and the other half in this village.
Question: Is it a series, or a mini-series?
Atwell: It's a six-parter, so I don't know what they'll be doing afterwards. Because I didn't know how the original works. But - yeah. It's six parts, with ITV, but I think also America. It's being sold to a channel.
Question: And whom do you play in it?
Atwell: I play a girl called Lucy, who is the prisoner's kind of love interest, but you realize very quickly that nothing is what it seems, and she's actually working for a corporation that is responsible for this so-called village, where people are leaving their names and identity, and being called by their numbers. And then you also see Lucy in the village, and she's someone with a number this time, and she's also blind. And it's a bit of a mystery as to who she is. It's ambiguous. But it makes for exciting television..."
