Kravitz is also execiutive producing the with a 10-episode order, that is going ot arrive at Disney's upcoming streaming service in 2019.

The latest role bagged by Big Little Lies' free-spirit, Bonnie Carlson, aka Zoe Kravitz, is that of the lead in the series adaptation of 'High Fidelity' which is set to arrive at Disney’s upcoming streaming service in 2019. The original movie, released in 2000, has a cult following of sorts because of its portrayal of Rob Gordon by John Cusack, based on a book by Nick Hornby.

Rob was the quintessential music obsessed nice guy who dreams of owning his own record store. Yet somehow, he struck the fine balance between nerdy and cool, and happened to bed numerous women without any difficulty. And now, Kravitz - whose mother had starred in the original film - is going to play Gordon's role in the upcoming series that will be told from a female point of view.
