Amazon Prime Video has released a new trailer for its long-gestating American adaptation of `Utopia.`
The one-minute trailer imagines the end of the world with snippets of young comic fans who discover that the conspiracy - and beloved protagonist - in a graphic novel (entitled `Utopia`) is real. Its ominous cinematography and editing capture their high-stakes journey to save humanity
`It is a story about a rogue scientist who created biological warfare,` says an unnamed character in the trailer, which you can watch above.
`We have no idea what the end of the world's gonna bring, [but] french cut string beans aren't gonna save anybody,` says another character.
During the Comic-Con@Home panel for the show, writer and executive producer Gillian Flynn said that even though she started this project almost seven years ago, it has `never felt more resonant.` She also shared her adaptation process for fans of the original British series.
