I’m a huge Elena Ferrante fan having devoured the Neapolitan Series in the past 5 years. Not only did I enjoy the novels but also loved the HBO TV series “My Brilliant Friend” (L’Amica Geniale). The show had a successful run of 2 Seasons with 16 episodes and counting. Being a huge fan of the production, I couldn’t be more happier to see the filming of My Brilliant Friend Season 3 in Florence! Below are some shots from fellow content creators on Instagram. It is #FerranteFever for a reason, folks!
