Based on William Gibson’s dazzling, hallucinatory glimpse into the fate of mankind — and what lies beyond, Prime Video’s “The Peripheral” has unleashed a teaser trailer.
Chloë Grace Moretz (Carrie) stars in a new vision from the creators of “Westworld,” Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy. The series premieres October 21, exclusively on Prime Video.
Watch “The Peripheral” teaser trailer below.
“The Peripheral” centers on Flynne Fisher, a woman trying to hold together the pieces of her broken family in a forgotten corner of tomorrow’s America.
“Flynne is smart, ambitious, and doomed. She has no future. Until the future comes calling for her.”
“Flynne Fisher lives in the rural American South, working at the local 3D printing shop, while earning much needed extra money playing VR games for rich people. One night she dons a headset and finds herself in futuristic London—a sleek and mysterious world, alluringly different from her own hardscrabble existence.”
“But this isn’t like any game she’s ever played before: Flynne begins to realize it isn’t virtual reality… it’s real. Someone in London, seventy years in the future, has found a way to open a door to Flynne’s world. And as utterly beguiling as London is… it’s also dangerous. As Flynne searches to discover who has connected their worlds, and for what purpose, her presence here sets dangerous forces into motion…forces intent on destroying Flynne and her family in her own world.”
“The Peripheral” was created for television by Scott Smith (The Ruins).
Vincenzo Natali (Splice, “Hannibal”) directed the pilot episode.
William Gibson’s book was published in 2014.
