The first teaser welcomes you to “The I-Land“, coming off like a horror version of “Lost.” The mysterious new event series follows ten people who wake up on a treacherous island with no memory of how they arrived. As they et off to find a way back home, they soon discover this world is not as it seems. Faced with the island’s extreme psychological and physical challenges, they must become their better selves or die as their worst.

The seven-episode event premieres on Netflix on September 12, 2019.
