After Cloud Atlas and Jupiter Ascending it’s beginning to appear the Wachowski siblings need a little more room to breathe with their stories, a little less confinement and perhaps a 12-episode television series is the way to go. We’ll find out soon enough as Andy and Lana will deliver “Sense8” to Netflix with all 12 episodes dropping on June 5 and today the first trailer has arrived.
Teaming with J. Michael Strazynzki and Grant Hill, the Wachowskis set to tell a story focusing on one moment that links eight minds in disparate parts of the world, putting eight strangers in each other’s lives, each other’s secrets, and in terrible danger.
The cast includes Brian J. Smith, Tuppence Middleton, Jamie Clayton, Miguel Angel Silvestre, Tina Desai, Doona Bae, Aml Ameen, Max Riemelt, Daryl Hannah, Naveen Andrews, Terrence Mann, Freema Agyeman, Alfonso Herrera, Erendira Ibarra, Adam Shapiro, Ness Bautista​ and ​​​Joe Pantoliano.
One thing I found odd is a shot near the end where either the character is a movie stuntman or they forgot to scrub out the wires and cameraman from the shot. I have to assume it’s the former because that would be an odd mistake to make. Otherwise, I’m all in for this one and will definitely be checking it out.
Check out the trailer below.
