Trailer for Netflix Mystery Thriller Series BODIES Based on the Graphic Novel
Netflix has revealed the trailer for their intriguing mystery thriller series, Bodies, based on the graphic novel by Si Spencer. The series stars Shira Haas (Unorthodox) as DC Maplewood; Stephen Graham (The Irishman) as Elias Mannix; Jacob Fortune-Lloyd (The Queen’s Gambit) as DS Whiteman; Amaka Okafor (The Responder) as DS Hasan; and Kyle Soller (The Inheritance) as DI Hillinghead.
Bodies is created and executive produced by Paul Tomalin, with Marco Kreuzpaintner, Will Gould, and Frith Tiplady also executive producing. Susie Liggat produces. Kreuzpaintner directs the series along with Haolu Wang.
The synopsis reads:
“Based on the mind-bending graphic novel by Si Spencer, Bodies is a police procedural with a twist. When a body – the same body – is found on Longharvest Lane in London’s East End in 1890, 1941, 2023, and 2053, one detective from each period must investigate. As connections are drawn across the decades, the detectives soon discover their investigations are linked, and an enigmatic political leader – Elias Mannix (Stephen Graham) – becomes increasingly central. Did he have a part to play in the murder? Or is something far more sinister at play? To solve the mystery, our four detectives must somehow collaborate and uncover a conspiracy spanning over 150 years.”
This looks like a really interesting original story! I love a good thriller series, and this one seems to be well-done. The eight-episode first season of Bodie is set to hit Netflix on October 19th. Check out the trailer below, and let us know if you’ll be watching this series.
