The first Nautilus trailer for the upcoming series adaptation of Jules Verne‘s classic adventure novel Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea has finally been revealed. This comes after nearly a year since AMC picked up the show’s U.S. rights following its sudden Disney+ cancellation. At the moment, AMC has yet to announce its official U.S. release date. However, it is now currently slated to premiere on October 25 in the UK on Prime Video.
“For the first time ever, the series tells Jules Verne’s epic story from Captain Nemo’s point of view: an Indian Prince robbed of his birth right and family, a prisoner of the East India Mercantile Company and a man bent on revenge against the forces that have taken everything from him,” reads the synopsis. “But once Nemo sets sail with his ragtag crew on board the awe-inspiring Nautilus, he not only battles with his enemy, but discovers a wondrous underwater world, learns to take his place as leader of the crew, and goes on an unforgettable adventure beneath the sea.”
