Cruel Intentions centers around the story of 16-year-old Bash Casey, the son of the late Sebastian Valmont (Ryan Phillippe) and Annette Hargrove (Reese Witherspoon).

As he tries to find answers, he leaves Kansas to go to the prestigious Brighton Preparatory Academy in San Francisco. He later finds himself confronting money, sex, power and corruption.

Cruel Intentions is based on the novel Les Liasons Dangereuses by Choderlos de Laclos. Kumble will direct the TV pilot.
