Dead Ringers
One. Nobody was asking for a mini-series adaptation of David Cronenberg's 1988 film Dead Ringer featuring Jeremy Irons as Identical Twin Gynecologists (not a bit). Fortunately, Prime Video specializes in content nobody was asking for and Rachel Weisz has an incredible Jeremy Irons impression. Red & Ivan are out of the Silo and back in an even more hellish scenario: The Present. They talk Dead Ringers on Prime Video.
