11 main series of May: "Love. Death. Robots", "Food Hall" and "Castle"»
In order not to get lost in the variety of TV news, we have prepared for you a guide to the 11 main series of May. Take the calendar and quickly mark the release dates with a red marker so that you don't miss anything.
After three and a half years of waiting, "Call Girl" returns with a new season-an anthology about the adventures and everyday problems of elite sex workers.
The project grew out of the Steven Soderbergh film of the same name starring Sasha Grey. The new season is a completely original project, written and directed by the director Anya Marquardt, known for the drama about intimacy "Losing Control".
Information about the new episodes is not so much, but it is known for sure that the action will unfold in London. Well, do not forget that this is an anthology, so if you want, you can safely ignore the first seasons.
"Pose," the planet's premier woke series, is about to end — season three will be the final one for a story about the ball culture popular in the underground hangout of New York's African-Americans and Latinos in the late 1980s.
The new episodes will tell about the mid-90s and, judging by the trailer and synopsis, will end the series on a sad note, placing even more emphasis on the criticism of health care in those years.
According to the endless photos from the shooting, in which Josh Duhamel walks around in a ridiculous white suit and a strange wig, you might think that "The Legacy of Jupiter" is another parody of superheroics, but in fact it is the expected film adaptation of the comic book series of the same name, created by Mark Millar ("Kick-ass").
He set himself the ambitious task of tracing how American superheroes relate to the country's history, culture, and ideals. The result is a series of "Jupiter's Legacy" - about how the first generation of superheroes, who gained power back in the 1930s, tries to instruct descendants who are only concerned about fame.
This is a story about boomers vs zoomers, served in the form of superheroics.
"Legendary Quest", like many Apple TV + series, at first seemed like another missed opportunity and for the full first season was able to give the audience only one noteworthy episode, and even that is out of the general narrative and works more like a lyrical digression.
Last year's quarantine helped the series finally decide on the tone — then the creators released a shot on the knee, but very touching screenlife special. They cemented its success with a second excellent special episode, released in April of this year.
I would like to believe that the second season, which will be dedicated to the development of the supplement to the "Feast of the Raven", will continue in the same spirit and turn the" Legendary Quest " into one of the best projects of the platform.
The creators of "Castlevania" managed almost impossible-to create a decent anime adaptation of the great series of games Castlevania, which not only did not anger the fans, but, on the contrary, conquered them.
The final fourth season of the anime should put an end to the confrontation between the hunter Trevor Belmont and the Count Dracula terrorizing the inhabitants of Wallachia.
After the grand finale of the third season, fans have very high expectations — let's see if the creators will be able to meet them.
So far, the multi-million dollar collaboration between Ryan Murphy and Netflix is developing ambiguously: there are too many films and TV series created by him on the platform, but there is nothing grandiose and really big among them.
Just such a project can be "Holston" - a biopic of one of the main designers of the XX century with Ewan McGregor in the title role. The first promotional materials look outrageous and kitschy — and this is exactly what we expect from the projects of Ryan Murphy.
However, there was no doubt about the visual style of the mini-series, but the script causes concern — this is generally the main scourge of Murphy's recent projects.
After a two-year hiatus, the much-loved animated anthology Love returns to Netflix. Death. Robots", produced by Tim Miller and David Fincher.
It is already known that in the new season there will be only eight episodes - among them a sci-fi with Michael B. Jordan, a philosophical parable about Leviathan and an unusual look at the attempt to catch Santa Claus.
It's a bit of a shame that the number of episodes has been cut in half, but it is already known that the series will return with a third season in 2022.
One of the most anticipated TV series of the year is the film adaptation of the novel of the same name, recognized in the United States as a masterpiece and an instant classic.
"The Underground Railroad" is an unusual look at the history of American slavery in the mid — 19th century: Cora — an ordinary African-American woman-decides to escape from a cotton plantation from cruel masters who enjoy demonstrative punishments. Her path lies along the Underground Railroad (the real name, meaning the secret ways that slaves escaped from the southern states to the northern states and Canada) to freedom.
Barry Jenkins, the director of "Moonlight", who, judging by the trailer, shot one of the most beautiful series of recent years, is responsible for the film adaptation.
Kinopoisk HD continues to produce bold original series. The film adaptation of Alexey Ivanov's "Food Block", a mystical horror about vampires in the Soviet setting, is on the way.
In the story, during the Olympic Games-1980 in the Samara pioneer camp, very strange things happen: an ordinary teenager and a counselor learn that among the camp workers there are real vampires who drink the blood of children and obey a mysterious master.
The trailer looks like a mix of " Very strange Cases "and the ninth season of" American Horror Story " — such a captivating nostalgia for the eighties and the atmosphere of a carefree camp vacation slasher.
HBO has suddenly resurrected and relaunched one of its most underrated series, the psychotherapy drama Patients, which recreates the work of a psychologist and several of his patients.
In the fourth season, Gabriel Byrne will be replaced by the star of the series "Orange is the hit of the season" Uzo Aduba. There will be 24 episodes in total, in which the creators promise to tell not so much about psychotherapy sessions and unique cases from practice, but about how a psychotherapist passes through the problems of strangers and works with the accumulated emotional burden.
One of the best Netflix series-an experimental dramedy about the life of a would-be actor named Dev-returns with a long-awaited new season, but, alas, with one correction: five new episodes will not be a full-fledged third season, but a kind of spin-off about Denise, one of the secondary heroines of the series.
They will tell you about her relationship with a new girl. After the allegations of sexual harassment, Aziz Ansari decided not to return to the main role, but remained on the other side of the camera: he directed and wrote all the episodes.
