Ridley Scott‘s upcoming new series The Terror trailer is here and it is quite amazing. This new trailer will get you even more excited about what this show is all about and has to offer! New trailer comes with more new footage and also offers us more details on the intense story of the show.
The Terror is based in the 1840s and if orbits around the terrifying story of two ships from the Royal Navy who are not only forced to endure the dangerous conditions of the Arctic, but they are also threatened by something at night, it is quite an intense story and trailers are very well put together.
The series is based on the novel by Dan Simmons’ and get this, it is inspired by the true story of Captain Sir John Franklin’s lost expedition of HMS Erebus and HMS Terror to the Arctic in 1845–1848. This is a fictionalized version of the true story and it I am sure we are heading towards a brilliant series.
Inspired by a true story, The Terror centers on the Royal Navy’s perilous voyage into unchartered territory as the crew attempts to discover the Northwest Passage. Faced with treacherous conditions, limited resources, dwindling hope and fear of the unknown, the crew is pushed to the brink of extinction. Frozen, isolated and stuck at the end of the earth, The Terror highlights all that can go wrong when a group of men, desperate to survive, struggle not only with the elements, but with each other.
Executive producers and co-showrunners David Kajganich and Soo Hugh previously had this to say about the series:
“The Terror captures a rare combination of fascinating history, complex and flawed characters, the inextinguishable human spirit and the horror and promise of an uncharted world. We are looking forward to bringing viewers into this world in March.”
