Right on cue, here comes a sexy new TV adaptation of that book all the teens can't stop talking about: Dante's Inferno.
The series, which The Hollywood Reporter says is set to debut on Freeform, will be loosely based on the 14-century poem of the same name, because why not? It's in the public domain. This dramatically re-imagined version of Inferno will follow a 20-year-old woman named Grace Dante as she navigates the demonic underworld of present-day Los Angeles.
