Amazon's Victorian Fantasy CARNIVAL ROW Gets Another Fantastic Full Trailer
Amazon has released another full trailer for their incredibly cool new Victorian fantasy series, Carnival Row. This latest trailer offers even more footage from the show and gives us our best look yet at the story and what it had to offer. I’ve liked everything that I’ve seen from this show so far and I’m curiously excited to see how the story plays out.
The series stars Orlando Bloom and Cara Delevingne and it’s 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. This growing population struggles to coexist with humans — forbidden to live, love, or fly with freedom. But even in darkness, hope lives, as a human detective, Rycroft Philostrate (Bloom), and a refugee faerie named Vignette Stonemoss (Delevingne) rekindle a dangerous affair despite an increasingly intolerant society. 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.”
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.
