based on book/movie

Do any source say it is inspired by the movie specifically? Lead sort of sounds like it is based on movie which happens to be based on the book. Few sources I checked just say its based on both book/movie. Lead sentence seems off to me. WikiVirusC(talk) 01:09, 8 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@WikiVirusC: Reference #6 on the article mentions that: [1]. — YoungForever(talk) 01:54, 8 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Where? The first sentence is : I hear a romantic comedy TV series inspired by Nick Hornby’s 1995 novel High Fidelity and the 2000 feature starring John Cusack is in early development for Disney’s upcoming direct-to-consumer service. Nothing in article is saying otherwise either. WikiVirusC(talk) 02:00, 8 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Unless you mean the line a female take on the character played in the movie by Cusack ? Which seems more like its "a female take on the character that Cusack played", rather than implying its "a take on the movie with a female lead as Cusack's character."

@WikiVirusC: I would say both. — YoungForever(talk) 02:19, 8 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@WikiVirusC: Update: According to the on-screen credits, the TV series is only based on the book by Nick Hornby. — YoungForever(talk) 23:55, 14 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
