Netflix has released a new trailer for 1899, the upcoming genre-bending mystery-horror series from Baran bo Odar and Jantje Friese, the creators of the critically-acclaimed German time travel series, Dark. The series follows of group of European migrants travelling on a steamship across the Atlantic Ocean, and this is where the big mystery begins, as the Kerberos goes out in search of the lost Prometheus.
The new trailer runs for two-and-a-half minutes long, and features stunning visuals that tease the show's big mystery. The dark and mysterious mood and atmosphere of the show would remind you of Dark, and it looks like there will be a lot of plot twists and weird events that will surely astonish fans.
"There is a lot in the DNA that is kind of close to Dark in terms of the puzzle and needing an engaged active audience," Friese said in a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly. "But there are also things that are quite different in terms of atmosphere and tonality, but also pacing and more action-y stuff happening. So it is truly a beast of its own, but shares a lot of the same maybe mechanisms as Dark does. Hopefully it feels like something really fresh and new, while still [being] exactly what Dark fans would like to watch."
The official description of 1899 reads:
"On their journey across the vast and treacherous Atlantic Ocean, the passengers of the Kerberos encounter the biggest mystery of their lives. Welcome to 1899, a deeply immersive new series from the creators of Dark"
