In February 2017, Lola Bessis will lead the Picnic At Hanging Rock Reboot alongside Game of Thrones Actress Natalie Dormer and Orange is the New Black star Yael Stone. Foxtel recently announced plans to revive the classic story into a six-part mini-series. Picnic at Hanging Rock is one of Australia’s most iconic books and movies. The historical novel, which depicts the disappearance of three school girls and their Teacher during an excursion to Hanging Rock, was written by Joan Lindsay in 1967, before being adapted into a hauntingly beautiful film by Peter Weir in 1975.
