HBO MAX has released the first trailer for Ridley Scott’s Raised By Wolves & the action comes ahead of the September 3 premiere on the streamer.
The series revolves around two androids tasked with developing human children on a mysterious virgin planet. As the burgeoning colony of humans threatens to be torn apart by religious differences, the androids learn that controlling the beliefs of humans is a treacherous and difficult task. The show stars Travis Fimmel, Amanda Collin, Abubakar Salim, Winta McGrath, Niamh Algar, Matias Varela, Felix Jamieson, Ethan Hazzard, Jordan Loughran, Aasiya Shah, and Ivy Wong.
Ridley Scott directed the first two episodes & serves as an executive producer on the sci-fi series. This will also mark his American Television directorial debut as well. Creator Aaron Guzikowski said during the TCA panel that while Scott is continuing the aesthetic from his previous films (like Alien and Blade Runner), “he’s evolving into some new stuff we haven’t seen yet.” Added EP David Zucker, “the sensibility that Ridley infuses in all of his work is very evident here both from seeing the end of Earth as it is to the pioneering journey on this new planet.”
The 10-episode Raised by Wolves was originally set up at TNT with a straight-to-series order and is the second series to move from WarnerMedia’s basic cable networks to the upcoming streamer, joining TBS comedy Search Party.
