Chaos Unveils Trailer Filled with Overdramatic, Desperate Eternal Beings
Get ready, folks! Here's the lowdown on Netflix's latest series, Kaos, stepping into the fantastical world of a modernized Greek pantheon. The gods are feeling the heat as they anticipate their free ride on Earth might soon be over. Check out the second trailer below:
The latest sneak peek offers our first glimpses of Cassandra (Billie Piper), Medusa (Debi Mazar), and Lachy (Suzy Eddie Izzard). The trailer hints at our protagonist, Riddy (Aurora Perrineau), who's set to overthrow them. But it seems she faces some challenges; a trip to the underworld appears to be a necessity, and Zeus, portrayed hilariously by Jeff Goldblum, triumphs in temporarily casting her into a parallel Earth, visualized in black-and-white photography. In a twist, the ferry to hell has been transformed into a modern ferry boat – these gods are embracing the contemporary era!
While their gladiatorial battles still look intense, participants are seen decked out in wrestling-inspired costumes and personas. If you're expecting a hefty dose of that throughout the series, brace yourself! Goldblum, alongside co-stars Janet McTeer (Hera), Cliff Curtis (Poseidon), and David Thewlis (Hades), all seem to enjoy their time on set. Kaos premieres officially on Netflix on Thursday, August 29.
