“The war has begun.” Netflix has debuted another new teaser trailer for a series titled Kaos, described as a “modern day contemporary retelling of Greek mythology.” This looks brutal and kinda scary! In Kaos, Jeff Goldblum is Zeus, the King of the Gods. All-powerful, cruel, occasionally benevolent… he has no idea that the plot to take him down has begun. From the writer of “The End of the F*cking World” and the producers of Chernobyl. Kaos is a mythological dark-comedy series created by Charlie Covell – available for streaming at the end of August coming soon. The series revolves around six humans as they discover their connection to each other and to a long standing ancient prophecy while they deal with corrupt and arrogant gods of the Greek mythology. The cast features Goldblum as Zeus, Janet McTeer as Hera, Cliff Curtis as Poseidon, David Thewlis as Hades, Killian Scott as Orpheus, Debi Mazar as Medusa, and Nabhaan Rizwan as Dionysus. Plus four other mortals – Riddy (Aurora Perrineau), Orpheus (Killian Scott), Caneus (Misia Butler) & Ari (Leila Farzad) who come from different walks of life, all cosmically connected in the battle against Zeus. This series looks much, much darker and crazier and more intense than I was expecting! Wow.
Here’s the second teaser trailer for Netflix’s Greek Gods series Kaos, direct from Netflix’s YouTube:
You can watch the original short teaser for Netflix’s Kaos series right here, to view the first look again.
Zeus has long enjoyed his status as King of The Gods. Until he wakes up and discovers a wrinkle on his forehead. Neurosis sets in, setting him off on a dangerous, paranoid path. Zeus becomes convinced his fall is coming – and starts to see signs of it everywhere. Zeus’ once reliable brother, Hades, the God of the Underworld, is secretly losing his grip on his dark dominion. There is a backlog of dead waiting to be processed and they are growing restless. Hera (Janet McTeer), Queen of the Gods, exercises dominion on Earth — and over Zeus — in her own unique way. But her power and freedom become threatened by Zeus’ growing paranoia, and she is forced to act, while Zeus’ rebellious son, Dionysus, (Nabhaan Rizwan), is out of control and on course for a cosmic collision with his father. On Earth people are aching for change, however Poseidon (Cliff Curtis), God of Sea, Storms & Earthquakes (& Horses) is more concerned with the size of his super-yacht & where the next party is. The wellbeing of mere mortals is of little interest to him…
