Blade Runner: Black Lotus is coming to Adult Swim in the fall. But what is it?
A new trailer for the team-up between the Cartoon Network offshoot and anime streamer Crunchyroll serves us a first look at this CG take on the sci-fi dystopia dreamed up by filmmaker Ridley Scott. The 13-episode series stars, on the English-language side, Jessica Henwick (Netflix Marvel’s Colleen Wing) as a female replicant with a mysterious backstory and purpose.
Most of what we know about the upcoming series is revealed in this trailer, which amounts to our first proper look at what Adult Swim and Crunchyroll have cooked up. It’s appropriately rainy and moody for a Blade Runner story, and yes, that is the voice of Succession‘s Brian Cox at around the one-minute mark.
