UTOPIA: Amazon Releases First Teaser of Timely Conspiracy Thriller

It’s the end of the world as we know it in the new Amazon series UTOPIA, as the (timely) show debuts this fall.

From SHARP OBJECTS’ Gillian Flynn, the series is inspired by the British show of the same name. In the US version, it follows “a group of comic fans who meet online and bond over their obsession of a seemingly fictional comic called, ‘Utopia.’ Together, Ian (Dan Byrd), Becky (Ashleigh LaThrop), Samantha (Jessica Rothe), Wilson Wilson (Desmin Borges) and Grant (Javon “Wanna” Walton) unearth hidden meanings cloaked within the pages of “Utopia,” predicting threats to humanity. They realize these are not just the makings of a conspiracy; they are very real dangers coming alive right now in their world. The high-stakes adventure brings the group face-to-face with the comic’s famed central character, Jessica Hyde (Sasha Lane), who joins them on their mission to save the world while harboring secrets of her own.” The series also stars John Cusack as Dr. Kevin Christie, Rainn Wilson as Dr. Michael Stearns, Farrah Mackenzie as Alice, Christopher Denham as Arby, and Cory Michael Smith as Thomas Christie.

Watch a teaser for the eight-part series, which debuted during the show’s Comic-Con panel…
