Here’s a first trailer for the frightening-sounding — and looking — Netflix sci-fi anime horror series Exception, which debuts on October 13. News breaking today also reveals music from Academy Award winner Ryuichi Sakamoto will feature in the space saga.
The synopsis for the series, which is from Tatsunoko Production and Studio 5, reads: “In the far future, humanity has been driven from Earth and forced to move its population to another galaxy. Members of a scouting team are sent to search for a planet suitable for terraforming. The crew was created through a biological 3D printer, but a system malfunction causes one of the crew members, Lewis, to emerge in a deformed state. As Lewis turns on his fellow crew members Nina, Mack, Patty and Oscar, a countdown to the end of the mission begins in the frightening darkness of the ship.”
The English and Japanese cast includes Nolan North / Chikahiro Kobayashi as Lewis, Robbie Daymond / Takahiro Sakurai as Mack, Ali Hillis / Yuko Kaida as Nina, Eugene Byrd / Takanori Hoshino as Oscar and Nadine Nicole / Atsumi Tanezaki as Patty.
Hirotaka Adachi wrote the original screenplay, with Yuzo Sato is director. Yoshitaka Amano oversaw character design.
Netflix has confirmed the series launches globally in a month, on October 13.
