Sequel
In 1990, the made-for-television film A Dangerous Man: Lawrence After Arabia was produced as a sequel to the Lawrence of Arabia. It featured Ralph Fiennes as Lawrence and Alexander Siddig as Prince Faisal. The movie dealt primarily with the attempts of Lawrence and Faisal to secure independence for Arabia during the 1919 Versailles Conference following the end of World War I. A principal departure from the earlier film shows Faisal closer in age to Lawrence, and in a sometimes fraught role of friendship and collaboration with him - a clear echo of Lawrence's friendship with Sherif Ali in the original. The film was generally well received and deals more with the political ramifications of Lawrence's efforts in the Middle East.
