‘Rosemary’s Baby’ with Zoe Saldana premieres on NBC Sunday

Audiences will have a chance to see the popular story of Rosemary’s Baby. This year, the story known from film moves to a four hour television event.

Rosemary’s Baby stars Zoe Saldana as Rosemary Woodhouse in her first leading TV role. The plot is something we know. Rosemary and her husband find themselves in Paris after a miscarriage. Rosemary’s next pregnancy becomes challenged and her world becomes more difficult to fathom.

The horror film originally starred Mia Farrow. The filming of Rosemary’s Baby moved to Paris recently. Saldana, told the Associated Press, "It is a gift to be able to play a role that another actress, a very iconic actress, played and found a very special way to make it authentic." Saldana is a movie actress known for her work on Avatar.

When films from the big screen jump to the small screen, there are always considerations. This year’s version of Rosemary’s Baby will be presented over four hours. David Stern, executive producer of NBC's Rosemary's Baby told Reuters, “Both networks and cable stations are willing to take risks right now and they're a great incubator and great home for people who just want to get their material out there."
