Jazz aficionados will find plenty to love in the trailer for Damien Chazelle's upcoming Netflix miniseries. `La La Land` director Damien Chazelle's next project is almost here. Netflix has released the official trailer for `The Eddy,` which hits the streaming service on May 8.

Though the eight-episode miniseries, which stars Andre Holland (`Moonlight`), marks Chazelle's first foray into television direction, the premise will be immediately welcoming to longtime fans of the Oscar winner's famously jazzy work.

Per Netflix's synopsis, `The Eddy` takes place in the vibrant multicultural neighborhoods of modern-day Paris. Once a celebrated jazz pianist in New York, Elliot Udo (Holland) is now the co-owner of the struggling club The Eddy, where he manages the house band fronted by lead singer and on-again-off-again girlfriend Maja (Joanna Kulig).

As Elliot learns that his business partner Farid (Tahar Rahim) may be involved in some questionable practices at the club, secrets begin to come to light that have also been concealed from Farid's wife Amira (Leïla Bekhti), and when Elliot's troubled teenage daughter Julie (Amandla Stenberg) suddenly arrives in Paris to live with him, his personal and professional worlds quickly start to unravel as he confronts his past, fighting to save the club, and protect those closest to him.



`The Eddy` marks Holland's first television credit since his starring role in the first season of `Castle Rock` in 2018. It will serve as a reunion of sorts for Holland and Chazelle after the infamous `Moonlight` and `La La Land` mix-up at the 2017 Oscars.
