Netflix has released a new trailer for the crazy-looking mythological dark comedy series titled Kaos, which stars Jeff Goldblum as Zeus, the King of the Gods, and he’s a vengeful God who is looking to “wipe these F–kers of the face of the f–kin’ planet.”
Zeus, “All-powerful, cruel, occasionally benevolent… he has no idea that the plot to take him down has begun.” The movie is described as a “modern day contemporary retelling of Greek mythology.”
The series revolves around six humans as they discover their connection to each other and to a long standing ancient prophecy while they deal with corrupt and arrogant gods of the Greek mythology.
In the series, “Zeus has long enjoyed his status as King of The Gods. Until he wakes up and discovers a wrinkle on his forehead. Neurosis sets in, setting him off on a dangerous, paranoid path.
“Zeus becomes convinced his fall is coming – and starts to see signs of it everywhere. Zeus’ once reliable brother, Hades, the God of the Underworld, is secretly losing his grip on his dark dominion.
“There is a backlog of dead waiting to be processed and they are growing restless. Hera (Janet McTeer), Queen of the Gods, exercises dominion on Earth — and over Zeus — in her own unique way.”
But, “Her power and freedom become threatened by Zeus’ growing paranoia, and she is forced to act, while Zeus’ rebellious son, Dionysus, (Nabhaan Rizwan), is out of control and on course for a cosmic collision with his father.
“On Earth people are aching for change, however Poseidon (Cliff Curtis), God of Sea, Storms & Earthquakes (& Horses) is more concerned with the size of his super-yacht & where the next party is. The wellbeing of mere mortals is of little interest to him…”
The film comes from Charlie Covell, the writer of The End of the F*cking World and the producers of Chernobyl. The rest of the cast includes David Thewlis as Hades, Killian Scott as Orpheus, Debi Mazar as Medusa, and Nabhaan Rizwan as Dionysus. Plus four other mortals – Riddy (Aurora Perrineau), Orpheus (Killian Scott), Caneus (Misia Butler) and Ari (Leila Farzad).
Kaos will be released on Netflix on August 29th.
