1899 trailer teases mystery at sea from Dark creators

Jantje Friese and Baran bo Odar, the creators behind Dark, are back with a new supernatural horror series called 1899. The German series is a mysterious tale set at sea and centers on a ship that encounters a missing vessel, which leads to a nightmare scenario for the passengers on board.

The Kerberos is a ship full of diverse European immigrants heading to New York in search of a better life. During their treacherous journey, the Kerebos comes into contact with the Prometheus, another ship that was believed to have gone missing during the previous months. The abandoned Prometheus begins to haunt the passengers of the Kerebos, leading to a series of strange, unexplainable occurrences.

The series will consist of eight episodes. The first two episodes of 1899 premiered at the 2022 Toronto International Film Festival.

1899 streams globally on Netflix on November 17.

Oppenheimer trailer teases the race for the atomic bomb
Shot of Cillian Murphy in "Oppenheimer."

"We're in a race against the Nazis, and I know what it means if the Nazis have a bomb," J. Robert Oppenheimer (Dunkirk's Cillian Murphy) states in the latest trailer for Oppenheimer. The new footage from Christopher Nolan's next epic highlights the lead-up to one of the most important developments in history, the creation of a nuclear bomb.

The tense three-minute trailer focuses on the early days of the Manhattan Project as Oppenheimer works with Leslie Groves (Air's Matt Damon) to create the Los Alamos Laboratory, a secluded site in New Mexico that would serve as the test site for the atomic bomb. As the trailer progresses, the two men begin to contemplate the severity of their work and the devastating impact it could have on the world. As the synopsis reads, Oppenheimer is the tragic story of an "enigmatic man who must risk destroying the world in order to save it."
