Get ready for a ‘twisted tale’
The Trumps.
We live in an age of dynasties, executive producer Josh Schwartz says.
It felt like a particularly relevant time to bring the show back.

There was Joan Collins.
(The reboot will have at least two of those things.)
It was the Rolls-Royce of primetime soaps, showrunner Sallie Patrick (Revenge) says.
Before there was the Red Wedding onGame of Thrones, there was the Moldavian Massacre onDynasty.
To have a chance to find out what 2017s version of that show could be was very exciting.
The original show was driven through Blakes point of view, Schwartz says.
But the women arent the only ones who will struggle to see eye to eye.
And dont forget Cristals mysterious nephew Sammy Jo (Rafael de la Fuente).
And as far as executive producer Stephanie Savage is concerned, they also couldnt remakeDynastywithout the house.
Carrington Manor is the apex, Savage says.
As somebody whos worked in the genre for many years, thats the house that haunts your dreams.
Dynastypremieres Wednesday, Oct. 11 at 9 p.m.
ET on The CW.
