Thr musical has been around since like 2010. It was a book "in the first place" but the stage adaption is separate to the movie.

I will again reiterate that I saw it in London in 2017 and it was great . Totally different interpretation to the film, so if it is a version of that it's really not a "remake" of the original film.

(Again though it is Netlfix so people should temper any expectation of it actually being good... ... ... Netflix have a few good original shows but their interpretations of existing material, and tbh their films in general, are generally poor).
