Then Alex is in the mountains, undercover, trying to figure out what the evil genius is up to. What the evil genius was up to was no more absurd than the average Bond villain and a lot more original but it still turned my suspension of disbelief into a bungee jump.

The protagonist is a boy called Alex Rider. He’s 14 years old, and he’s an orphan. His uncle, who raised him, died in a car crash before the series begins. Alex discovered that his uncle worked for MI6, which is an elite British spy organization. Now, Alex works for MI6 in his uncle’s place whenever they need his help. He’s struggling to keep his unusual job secret from his friends, and he’s not sure he wants to help them forever.

He makes his first appearance in Scorpia. Initially, Alex doesn't tell him anything about his involvement with MI6 and his mission of finding SCORPIA. Yet, Tom helps Alex in his mission in any way possible. Later, when Alex meets Tom on the train after escaping from SCORPIA, Alex tells Tom everything about his involvement with MI6, his past missions and whatever he knows about SCORPIA. Unlike with Sabina, Tom and his elder brother Jerry believe Alex immediately. Jerry teaches Alex BASE jumping and Alex BASE jumps into Consanto Enterprises. [15] Raven, Maddy (4 February 2021).

Clarke, Stewart (31 May 2017). "Alex Rider Books Being Developed Into Series by ITV, Eleventh Hour Films". Variety. The first season was produced over six months, beginning in March 2019. [16] Filming locations included London and, for the French Alps scenes, around Sinaia in Prahova County, Romania. [17] The series neatly captures the essential qualities of the book, delivering up a sassy, sarcastic Alex determined to get to the bottom of his uncle’s death, and equally determined to escape the clutches of the repellent Dr Grief and his associate, the sinister Mrs Stellenbosch. This dramatisation is likely to bring a new generation of fans, both teenagers and adults, into a series that has stood the test of time exceptionally well.
