Filming will start next month.
In addition to the musical and anniversary concerts, Les Miserables has been adapted numerous times for TV and movies in English and French. I remember watching the 1998 movie version starring Liam Neeson and Geoffrey Rush on TV years ago.

Re: Les Miserables TV series
I saw that version too, it was released here as a film, wasn't bad but very condensed, inevitably.

Has had good reviews here, but much relief at the absence of songs.
