Watch the first five minutes of George R.R. Martin’s Nightflyers
The first five minutes of George R.R. Martin’s upcoming series Nightflyers have been released online. It starts with star Gretchen Mol floating through a spaceship, stricken with panic as she re-activates the gravitational pull. Then, she begins to transmit a message that the ship, the Nightflyer, has sustained heavy damage, while the crew has suffered multiple fatalities. She then pauses as another member of the crew strolls through the vessel whistling, only resuming were warning after he leaves the room. You can check out the clip in the post below!
The series stars Mol (Boardwalk Empire) as Dr. Agatha Matheson, alongside Eoin Macken (The Night Shift) as Karl D’Branin, David Ajala (Fast & Furious 6) as Roy Eris, Sam Strike (EastEnders) as Thale, Maya Eshet (Teen Wolf) as Lommie, Angus Sampson (Fargo) as Rowan, Jodie Turner-Smith (The Last Ship) as Melantha Jhirl, and Brían F. O’Byrne (Million Dollar Baby) as Auggie.
Nightflyers follows eight maverick scientists and a powerful telepath who embark on an expedition to the edge of our solar system aboard The Nightflyer – a ship with a small tightknit crew and a reclusive captain — in the hope of making contact with alien life. But when terrifying and violent events begin to take place they start to question each other — and surviving the journey proves harder than anyone thought.
