Scarlett is a 1994 American six-hour television miniseries loosely based on the 1991 book of the same name written by Alexandra Ripley as a sequel to Margaret Mitchell's 1936 novel Gone with the Wind.

The series was filmed at 53 locations in the United States and abroad, and stars Joanne Whalley-Kilmer as Scarlett O'Hara, Timothy Dalton as Rhett Butler, and Sean Bean as Lord Richard Fenton.

After Mammy dies, Rhett and Scarlett have another hostile encounter, which culminates in him leaving and her returning to the Atlanta house, determined to win him back.

Scarlett is not shown struggling with her unease in society but rather is criticized when Anne sees her and Ashley go into his hotel room together, resulting in a steamy kiss.

Scarlett continues to distance herself from the novel as her relationship with her kin is not so much discovering and assimilating her Irish heritage and family, as escaping from her grandfather's household and passing the time.

Her decision to go to Ireland is also preceded by cutting off all ties to America as well as the details of buying her sister Careen's share of Tara, which had been donated to the convent as a dowry when she became a nun.

Scarlett keeps her daughter's birth a secret from Rhett to spite him, thinking that if Katie grows up not knowing her father she will not love him.
