Abstract

In 2017, Netflix announced that it had entered into an exclusive multi-year development deal with award-winning American producer and writer Shonda Rhimes. Under this deal, all of Rhimes’s future productions (made under her company Shondaland) would be Netflix Originals. This article examines Bridgerton and Queen Charlotte to consider how the traditional period drama has been transformed, in this case through colour-blind and colour-conscious casting, and a focus on strong female leads of colour and interracial relationships. The article will consider more broadly how streaming services like Netflix are taking diversity seriously as a key to reaching contemporary global audiences.

Netflix的女王：流媒体秀德兰

2017年，Netflix宣布与屡获殊荣的美国制片人兼作家Shonda Rhimes签订了一份多年独家开发协议。根据这份协议，莱姆斯未来的所有作品（由她的公司Shondaland制作）都将是Netflix的原创作品。本文以《布里杰顿》和《夏洛特女王》为例，探讨了传统历史剧是如何转型的，在这种情况下，通过色盲和有意识的选角，以及对有色人种和跨种族关系的强大女性女主角的关注。本文将更广泛地考虑像Netflix这样的流媒体服务是如何认真对待多样性的，这是吸引当代全球观众的关键。
