In 1348, as the Black Death strikes hard in the city of Florence.

But as social rules wear thin, what starts as a wine-soaked sex romp in the hills of Tuscany descends into an all out scramble for survival.

About The Decameron TV Series:

The Decameron is an upcoming American historical black comedy, television series created by Kathleen Jordan. It is inspired by the 14th-century short-story collection The Decameron by Giovanni Boccaccio.

In August 2022, Netflix announced the series. The cast was announced in December 2023, including Zosia Mamet, Saoirse-Monica Jackson, Tanya Reynolds, Amar Chadha-Patel, Leila Farzad, Lou Gala, Karan Gill, Tony Hale, Douggie McMeekin, and Jessica Plummer.

Pre-production for the series began at the end of 2022. Filming began on January 10, 2023, with plans to continue through June. Filming in Rome took place at the Cinecittà Studios, where the interiors of Villa Santa took up Stage 5, with additional portions of the villa utilizing Stage 4 and 11. Additional on-location filming also took place in locations throughout the province of Viterbo, such as the gardens of Castello Ruspoli and having the San Pellegrino quarter serve as 14th-century Florence by covering and hiding modern features such as gutters, cables, windows, and flues.

The Decameron is set to be released sometime in 2024.
