Revenge thrillers are a tale as old as time. Alexandre Dumas' 1844 novel The Count of Monte Cristo might not be quite as ancient by comparison, but the literary touchstone's immense popularity has never gone out of style, either. Dozens of global adaptations have riffed on Dumas' vengeance quest for well over a century, ranging from film and television to theater, from historically accurate to loosely modernized. France's latest reboot was a box office smash in 2024, while just last year, Regé-Jean Page (Bridgerton) announced plans to both produce and star in an upcoming film adaptation.
