Amazon Studios has premiered the teaser trailer for “Atlanta” creator/star Donald Glover’s new horror-thriller series “Swarm”.
Dominique Fishback stars as Dre, a young woman whose obsession with a Beyonce-like pop star takes a dark turn.
Glover recently described the series as a “post-truth Piano Teacher mixed with The King of Comedy” and says the Dre character is a classic Tony Soprano/Don Draper style antihero but “through the lens of a Black, modern-day woman”.
Chloe x Halle singer Chloe Bailey co-stars as Dre’s sister Marissa, while “Snowfall” actor Damson Idris plays Dre’s boyfriend. Glover co-created the series with “Atlanta” writer Janine Nabers.
The series will have its world premiere at the upcoming SXSW festival, ahead of releasing on Amazon’s Prime Video on March 17th.
