If you combined Squid Game with Survivor and set it in a South Korean high school, you’d get something that looks a lot like Pyramid Game. The series follows a group of students contending with “a ranking system that chooses class outcasts via secret vote.” As if being a teenager wasn’t bad enough. It starts streaming on Paramount Plus on May 30th.
AMC’s original Orphan Black series always left open the possibility of there being even more people wandering around in the world not knowing they were clones. And the first trailer for Anna Fishko’s spin-off Orphan Black: Echoes makes it seem like Kira Manning’s (Keeley Hawes) experience dealing with genetic dupes is going to come in very handy.
The first A Quiet Place featured a fair number of shots showing off the movie’s terrifying looked like up close, but the franchise’s latest entry seems like it’s going to spotlight what groups of the creatures can do in packs judging from the looks of this new trailer.
In its first teaser, the new LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy (on Disney Plus September 13th) goes where no Star Wars production has gone before by entering Darth Jar Jar into the canon.
Just kidding, it’s not canon. But it does look like a fun DC Elseworlds or Marvel’s What If...? kind of approach, which I’d like more of (no multiverse though, please).
Though Apple TV Plus has been crushing it on the sci-fi front lately, the streamer is gearing up for a crime thriller turn with a new series adaptation of author Scott Turow’s novel Presumed Innocent from David E. Kelley starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Ruth Negga. The series debuts on June 12th.
