TV - Brave New World

Sky have released the trailer for Brave New World, a Sky original, coming this autumn to Sky One and streaming service NOW TV. Have a look...

Based on Aldous Huxley’s groundbreaking 1932 novel, Brave New World imagines a utopian society that has achieved peace and stability through the prohibition of monogamy, privacy, money, family, and history itself.

As citizens of New London, Bernard Marx (Harry Lloyd) and Lenina Crowne (Jessica Brown Findlay) have only ever known a rigid social order, a perfect pharmaceutical called Soma, and a culture of instant gratification and ubiquitous sex. Curious to explore life beyond the strictures of their society, the two New Worlders embark on a vacation to the Savage Lands, where they become embroiled in a harrowing and violent rebellion. Bernard and Lenina are rescued by John the Savage (Alden Ehrenreich), who escapes with them back to New London. John’s arrival in the New World soon threatens to disrupt its utopian harmony, leaving Bernard and Lenina to grapple with the repercussions. The three become entwined in a fraught relationship that awakens them to the dangers of their own conditioning.

The series features an all-star cast including Alden Ehrenreich, Jessica Brown Findlay, Harry Lloyd and Demi Moore. David Wiener and Grant Morrison, along with Darryl Frank and Justin Falvey, co-presidents of Amblin Television, serve as executive producers. Wiener also serves as series showrunner. Owen Harris will direct the first two episodes and executive produce the series.



Brave New World is acquired from NBCUniversal International Distribution and produced by UCP, a division of NBCUniversal Content Studios, in association with Amblin Television.
