Lakestone is a French Original project in development, presented at Prime Video Presents 2025. Adapted from Sarah Rivens ' best-selling series of novels published by Hachette (Éditions BMR), this forthcoming Original film explores a dark universe blending romance, violence and the quest for survival. The adaptation promises to bring to the screen the dramatic intensity and complexity of the characters that have captivated thousands of readers.
Synopsis: Desperate student Iris takes a job in a seedy bar to finance her studies. There she crosses paths with Kai Lakestone, a ruthless mercenary whose sole aim is to recover a fortune stolen from the Organization. The thief is none other than Iris's father. Kai's plan is simple: use Iris as leverage, then eliminate him. But nothing goes according to plan. Between secrets revealed and scars from the past, an unexpected bond begins to form between Iris and Kai, in a spiral of loyalty, revenge and survival.
Lakestone will soon be available for streaming on Prime Video. The project is still in development, and no release date has yet been announced.
Sarah Rivens ' novels have established themselves as a benchmark of dark, addictive romance for a wide readership. Their transposition into an Original movie is an eagerly-awaited project, which could attract both fans of the author and a new audience on Prime Video.
Lakestone 's plot blends universal themes of survival, revenge, loyalty and impossible love. This blend of dramatic romance and thriller makes it particularly attractive to a young adult audience with a taste for intense stories.
This project is aimed primarily at viewers who enjoy dark romances and stories of redemption. Fans of sagas such as After or 365 Days may find a similar intensity, but with a darker, more psychological dimension.
Lakestone promises to be an ambitious French adaptation combining love, action and suspense. With this project, Prime Video continues to focus on strong literary adaptations to enrich its offering.
