Netflix Original Series has really stepped up their game quickly. From the victory that was Lilyhammer to the commercial and critical success of House of Cards, the pending release of a much wanted reunion for Arrested Development and the first promising trailer for Eli Roth’s Hemlock Grove, Netflix Original Series seems all for locking down talented show runners. Next on their platter, Sense8 a sci-fi thriller from the Wachowski siblings (The Matrix, Cloud Atlas)

Sense8 comes from the mind of the Wachowski’s and Babylon 5’s J. Michael Straczynski and follows the story about a band of people around the globe who’s minds are inexplicably linked as they are hunted down for unknown reasons. The show is said to embody the message of how technology is both great and devastating. Talking about the project, The Wachowski’s said:

“Several years ago, we had a late night conversation about the ways technology simultaneously unites and divides us, and out of that paradox ‘Sense8’ was born.”

Don’t expect Sense8 to come to Netflix anytime soon as they still have to finish up working on Jupiter Ascending.
