I’ve got another exciting teaser trailer to share with you for Amazon Studios’ upcoming fantastic looking Victorian series Carnival Row. A lot of people are looking forward to watching this show, which stars Orlando Bloom (The Lord of the Rings) and Cara Delevingne (Suicide Squad).
The first teaser intrigued fans, and this new one does a great job on building on that interest. I’m loving the magical tone of the series and I’m looking forward to seeing more from it. This latest teaser gives us a peek inside various trolly cars of a train and the people and magical creatures that inhabit them.
Carnival Row is an eight-part series set in a Victorian fantasy world filled with “mythological immigrant creatures whose exotic homelands were invaded by the empires of man.” Bloom takes on the role of a human detective, Rycroft Philostrate, and Delevingne stars as a refugee faerie named Vignette Stonemoss. “They rekindle a dangerous affair despite an increasingly intolerant society and Vignette harbors a secret that endangers Philo’s world during his most important case yet: a string of gruesome murders threatening the uneasy peace of the Row.”
Yeah, this is something that I think I’d enjoy. The series also stars “David Gyasi (Interstellar) as Agreus, a mysteriously wealthy faun who moves into an affluent human neighborhood in defiance of the social order; Karla Crome (Under the Dome) as Tourmaline, a quick-witted faerie poet driven from her war-torn homeland; Indira Varma (Game of Thrones) as Piety Breakspear, the regal and cunning matriarch of the powerful family that rules the city of The Burgue; and Tamzin Merchant (Salem) as Imogen Spurnrose, a young woman who sees in Agreus an opportunity to turn her aristocratic family’s fading fortunes around.”
Carnival Row is executive produced by Marc Guggenheim (Arrow, Eli Stone), René Echevarria (Star Trek, Teen Wolf, Castle, Medium), and Jon Amiel (Outsiders).
Carnival Row will hit Amazon Prime on August 30th, 2019.
