So instead of Dick and Barry, the record store will be filled with Rob’s coworkers Cherise and Simon, who try to give her both support and tough love when she decides to explore her past relationships to see where they went wrong and if there’s anything she can change.
Rob’s companions will be different (and like Rob herself, one will be gender-flipped and played by Da’Vine Joy Randolph).
Ultimately, this version of High Fidelity is coming in a new age.
There are some funny moments in this first look, and we’ll have to wait and see if there’s an appetite for this sort of remake.
