Netflix Drops First Trailer for Mystery Series ‘1899’ From Creators of ‘Dark’

The new mystery drama from Jantje Friese and Baran bo Odar follows a group of immigrants traveling by ship from Europe to New York at the turn of the last century.

Two years after the third and final season of their global Netflix hit Dark,

the twisted minds of German showrunner Jantje Friese and director/producer Baran bo Odar are back, with 1899.

Netflix just dropped the first trailer for the new series,

which, by the looks of it, will be spawning Dark levels of online theories and speculation as to what exactly is going on.

We are on an immigrant steamer ship traveling from Europe

to New York at the turn of the last century.

On board are passengers from all different backgrounds and nationalities,

united, in the words of one, by the fact “they are all running away from something.”
