A simmering cocktail of urban grit, supernatural thrills, and modern romance, the trailer for BBC’s new series, “Domino Day,” has arrived. It teases a fresh take on the supernatural world. Take a six-episode journey alongside a coven of young witches in Manchester, where neon lights illuminate secrets and spells crackle in the air.
Siena Kelly stars as the titular Domino Day. She is a captivating witch, navigating the murky waters of dating apps with a unique (and terrifying) purpose. But beneath the sleek veneer lies a hidden hunger, one that draws unsuspecting victims into her web.
Think “Euphoria” meets “The Vampire Diaries,” with a dash of “Charmed” and a hint of “Supernatural,” and you’ll get the idea of what you can expect.
Creator and writer Lauren Sequeira, known for her work on “Gangs of London,” weaves a complex narrative about identity, power, and ever-present danger. The production team behind the gritty drama “The Responder” is backing her up, ensuring the series packs a visual and emotional punch.
Joining Kelly is an ensemble cast that includes Babirye Bukilwa, Alisha Bailey, Poppy Lee Friar, and Sam Howard-Sneyd.
This series is not for the young. It features intense scenes of sex, violence, gore, and death. Viewer discretion is advised.
“Domino Day” casts its spell on Wednesday, January 31st, on BBC. While a US release date remains under wraps, the BBC iPlayer offers a portal for stateside viewers to watch.
