According to de Pencier, the adaptation of the novel for this television series was intended to provide a different look and feel compared to past productions; they were aiming for a 'documentary level of realism', as reflected in the extraordinary detail which has gone into the design of sets and costumes. Production on Season 3 was planned to start in late 2018 Personnel Besides the show itself having a larger number of female characters than male, women serving as executive producer and showrunner, the series has several female directors.
For the second season, showrunner and scriptwriter Moira Walley-Beckett was joined by a team of women writers. Season 3 will also feature a team of women writers. Casting Approximately 1800 girls on three continents auditioned for the role of. Was chosen for her ability to deliver dialogue which is 'incredibly thick and dynamic and beautiful', according to Miranda de Pencier. Walley-Beckett describes her as at once 'luminous', transparent, smart, soulful and emotional.
According to an interview with McNulty, an whose career on stage has included roles in, and, and on screen in and, her audition for Anne 'consisted of talking to trees, chatting with flowers and building thrones out of twigs.' Filming locations The series has occasionally filmed on but, for budgetary reasons, it has primarily been filmed in, at a Toronto studio, at outdoor locations in or near Toronto including, in Waterloo Region at locations including, and in communities such as,.
Music The opening theme is the song ' performed and originally composed by Canadian band. Themes Moira Walley-Beckett had this to say about her treatment, which is darker than the previous productions: 'In this day and age, themes of identity, prejudice, bullying, being an outsider, searching for a way to be accepted and how to belong are entirely topical and super relevant, and those are themes that are built into the story of 'Anne.' ' She went on to call Anne Shirley an 'accidental ', and how she 'really wanted to tell this story now'. For the second season, according to what she called her 'master plan', Walley-Beckett introduced an entirely new character of her own, Bash, to reflect the present in and around at the time of the novel, with a view to representing a community absent from previous adaptations, achieving this by having Gilbert travel on a steamship and meet with the new character in: 'Bash is the vehicle to explore intolerance and inequality, even more when he goes to The Bog, when he learns that other black people live there.' Walley-Beckett explained: 'The Bog is the community that's just outside of Charlottetown, where people of color were marginalized and had their own community there.'
The plan for Season 3 is to cover topics such as identity, feminism, bullying and gender parity. Walley-Beckett added: 'Our beloved Anne will be 16 years old when we return to this season full of romantic complications, bold adventures and dramatic discoveries.
I will explore important, contemporary themes that I hope will continue to resonate with, and inspire and uplift, our audience.'

Reception Critical response The first season has achieved a rating of 85% on based on 27 reviews for an average rating of 7.78/10 the site's critical consensus stating: ' Anne with an E uses its complex central character to offer a boldly stylish, emotionally resonant spin on classic source material that satisfies in its own right.' The series has received a rating of 79 on based on fifteen reviews, indicating 'generally favorable reviews'.
Emily Ashby, writing for, calls the series an 'exceptional' and 'spectacular' interpretation, giving it four out of five stars. Tasha Cerny, contributor for the Tracking Board, praises the cinematography as lush and colourful, the characters vibrant, and the plot 'surprisingly thrilling for a story about a young girl living in a small secluded community in the late nineteenth century. I laughed, I cried, and I didn't expect either from a show about a little girl.' Gwen Inhat of calls the series 'at once darker and sweeter than the original' novel, praising the core cast, reserving the highest for the series lead: 'Amybeth McNulty defies her youth with a performance that's less a portrayal of Anne than an absolute possession. It can't be easy to make Anne's fanciful language sing the way she does, and McNulty captures the endearing awkwardness that enables Anne to win over everyone she comes in contact with.'
Writing of the 90-minute premiere episode for the, was appreciative of Walley-Beckett's departures from the novel, bringing its to the fore: 'Reading between the novel's lines and adding, she gives us quick but potent glimpses of the miseries many orphans faced in 1890s imperialist culture.' Hanh Nguyen, reviewing the series for, concurs with this assessment, saying: 'Rather than ruining the series, they give the context for why Anne would be filled with gratitude for the beauties of nature, basic human decency and having a family to call her own. Montgomery had based much of Anne's need for escape into imagination on her own lonely childhood, and her stories have always had an underlying poignancy that made them all the sweeter.' Jen Chaney, writing for, agrees, saying: 'What distinguishes it from other previous Anne iterations is its willingness to harden some of the story's softness, just enough, to create an element of realism that period pieces, Gables-related or not, can be inclined to avoid.'
Writing for, commenting on reports of darkness and grittiness, goes so far as to call the adaptation 'richer' than the source material: 'Ms. McNulty's Anne is still wonderfully ebullient and eminently likable; she's just not the one-dimensional figure of other adaptations'.
Annie Hirschlag, writing for, suggests that a genuinely contemporary Anne is bound to reflect the current television landscape and wider culture of its times (the 2010s): 'Since today's entertainment is peppered with antiheroes — characters who are far from perfect, even occasionally villainous — it makes sense that Anne's familiar idealism is fringed with darkness and agony.' Some reviewers were more ambivalent, mainly about Walley-Beckett's changes to the story. Canadian novelist, who reviewed the 90-minute first episode for, said she enjoyed it more than she expected, particularly the set designs and costumes, as well as the performances by McNulty and Thomson, and she approved of the choice of theme song as reflective of the continued relevance of the source material. She was less sure about how far the series intended to stray from that source material, and disapproved of the 'manufactured drama, such as Matthew's wild horse ride'. Writing for, Isabella Beidenharn expressed similar feelings, but, 'putting the source material aside, it's a fine show on its own', and she conceded that 'inventing a dark side might help Anne With an E fit into today's TV landscape'. Allison Keene, writing for, agrees that Anne is a good drama on its own terms, but allows it is 'only a fair adaptation' of the novel, at its best in the home scenes: ' Anne with an E is undeniably the most stylish adaptation we've ever seen of Anne of Green Gables.
But its desire to reveal more of Anne's miserable past in order to be more true to what the desperation of an orphan is like feels at odds with Montgomery's story.' Writing for, critic Sonia Saraiya is even more ambivalent, describing the series as on the one hand 'a brilliant adaptation' which 'succeeds admirably', but on the other hand, 'the show can't quite sustain the brilliance, veering first into maudlin territory and then into the oddly saccharine as it tests out its tone', contending that 'the show gets a bit bogged down in telling the story of Anne's dysfunction', presenting 'a slightly soapy view of Anne's trials and tribulations that at times really humanize her and in others, are rather infantilizing'. Sarah Larson, writing for, was not at all impressed with changes made to the story, arguing that they alter Anne's character to the point of non-recognition. While she acknowledges that bringing subtext to the fore is a fine idea, she is not pleased with the execution, saying that the result is part 'the Anne we know and love' and part 'untrustworthy stranger', calling the alteration and addition of scenes a 'betrayal' of Montgomery's novel, comparing the treatment unfavourably to 's of 's. For Joanna Robinson, writing for, a central problem with the show is that it 'seems to think that in order for Anne to be a feminist figure, she has to butt up against a straw-man-filled patriarchy,' and so it turned many of the male characters into, most notably the Reverend Allan, who is considered by Anne to be a 'kindred spirit' in the book: ' Anne with an E seems to think Anne's triumphs are only noteworthy if she's continually told she can't succeed, when in fact her unfettered brilliance needs no such clumsy opposition. It also seems to think that Anne needs a radical feminist makeover when, in fact, the story of her success was feminist in its own right.' This is part of a more general problem Robinson notes, that conflicts are exaggerated and overdone: 'this series thrives on non-stop tragedy.'
Reviews for the second season have been mixed. On, it currently sits at 43% with an average rating of 8/10, based on seven reviews. Hanh Nguyen writes that despite 'periods of melancholy and turmoil, this season feels more energetic and subsequently lighter because of the faster pace.
It also is more comfortable in its skin and handles humor in its everyday situations deftly while also poking fun at itself.' Allison Keene, despite her misgivings about the first season's divergence from the original novel, says it grew on her; she approves of the second season's 'major shift in tone' and how, in moving away from the books and expanding the world, 'it also moves towards excellence.' Conversely, Heather Hogan, who 'hated' the first season for similar reasons in her review of Season 1, and despite loving the now open 'gayness' of the second season, nevertheless concludes her review thus: ' Anne With an E continues to use characters shoehorned in from 2018 to explain race and gender and sexuality to people on Prince Edward Island in 1908 as a way of explaining those things to people watching television on the internet in 2018. It's clunky and weird and sometimes embarrassing.
The dialogue sometimes feels like it was written in an alien language and run through Google Translator. The drama is so overwrought it’s ridiculous. The characters remain unrecognizable.'
Meghan O'Keefe, who was 'charmed' by Season 1, is 'baffled' by Season 2's choices of new storylines: 'I'm not such a purist that I need TV adaptations to hit every beat of a novel, but I do think that television made for families should understand what their own core philosophy is. While Walley-Beckett's instincts are good, I think this show is too enamored with its trappings of darkness to realize that Anne of Green Gables has endured this long because people love the small specificity of the characters' lives. Warping these details for showier TV kind of dilutes the story.' Author Amy Glynn says while the actors give 'solid gold performances' the script itself is 'adulterated'; it 'tramples the source material in a way that dilutes and arguably betrays the protagonist. What's the power in Anne's legendarily overwrought imagination once the world around her is darker than anything she could ever come up with?
What's the point of scenic and linguistic fidelity to the time and place once you've powder-coated it with an incredibly unsubtle overlay of 2018 sensibilities? It's not postmodern, it's not sardonic, it's not playful, it's not transgressive. It's a ham-handed dissertation on 'feminism' and 'diversity' and how only the terribly, terribly outcast can ever understand when something is a good idea and it's sanctimonious twaddle that would have made the book's author break out in hives.
Anne With An E Episodes
And it's agonizing because it is visually lovely and incredibly well-acted sanctimonious twaddle.' References.

LOS ANGELES/TORONTO, August 22, 2016 – Netflix and CBC are joining forces with Showrunner Moira Walley-Beckett and Miranda de Pencier’s Northwood Entertainment for the highly anticipated dramatic television series ANNE, based on Lucy Maud Montgomery’s timeless classic novel. CBC greenlit the eight-episode, one-hour series earlier this year. The show will stream globally on Netflix and be broadcast in Canada on CBC in 2017. Award-winning director Niki Caro ( Whale Rider, McFarland USA, Zookeeper’s Wife) has signed on to direct the two-hour premiere episode. Caro teams up with three-time Emmy® Award and Golden Globe winner Moira Walley-Beckett ( Breaking Bad, Flesh & Bone), who is writing the entire first season of the series produced by Miranda de Pencier ( Beginners, Thanks For Sharing) under her Northwood Entertainment banner.
This all-female powerhouse trio undoubtedly makes ANNE one of this year’s most anticipated television series. Production is scheduled to begin this September in Ontario, Canada. ANNE is a coming-of-age story about an outsider who, against all odds and numerous challenges, fights for acceptance for her place in the world and for love. The series centers on a young orphaned girl in 1890, who, after an abusive childhood spent in orphanages and the homes of strangers, is mistakenly sent to live with an elderly spinster and her aging brother. Over time, 13-year-old Anne will transform their lives and eventually the small town in which they live with her unique spirit, fierce intellect and brilliant imagination. “Anne Shirley is one of Canada’s greatest gifts to the world, known and loved internationally, so we’re thrilled to be working with the CBC and Northwood to bring this charismatic character to both new and old fans around the world,” said Elizabeth Bradley, Netflix vice president of content.
“I am thrilled and inspired to be joining this incredibly talented team, and honored to collaborate on material that brings this iconic character to life in such a bold, fresh, and exciting way,” said Niki Caro. Moira Walley-Beckett said: “I adore Anne! Exploring and expanding her story with new depth for a new generation has been exhilarating!” “Moira Walley-Beckett has written eight riveting, funny, emotional, surprising, beautiful hours of television. With the extraordinary talent of Niki Caro at the helm, we can’t wait to deliver our show to Netflix, CBC and the world,” said Northwood’s Miranda de Pencier, who brought the idea of the series development to Walley-Beckett, the CBC, and Netflix under her Northwood Entertainment banner. Netflix as our global partner means ANNE’s indomitable spirit can now enter homes and hearts all over the world.” While the new series will honor the foundation of the novel held as a Canadian treasure and global phenomenon, ANNE will also chart new territory. Anne and the rest of the characters will experience adventures reflecting timeless issues including themes of identity, sexism, bullying, prejudice, and trusting one’s self.
Walley-Beckett and de Pencier developed and will executive produce the series. Alison Owen ( Saving Mr. Banks) and Debra Hayward ( Bridget Jones Diary, Les Miserables) are also attached to executive produce and Susan Murdoch will produce.
