Published: Aug 20 2024

Jeff Goldblum embodies the epitome of a ruthless yet undeniably charismatic King of the Gods, Zeus, in the electrifying trailer for Netflix's darkly humorous series, 'Kaos.' As Greek mythology merges seamlessly with a contemporary twist, Goldblum, exuding a growing paranoia, finds himself locked in a battle against formidable mortals armed with powers to dethrone him, amidst the chaos of a dysfunctional family where powerful siblings engage in intricate schemes, only to falter within each other's grasp.

"We must turn destruction into a symphony," Goldblum, channeling the ruthless charm of Logan Roy, declares, clad in designer tracksuits, in the teaser trailer crafted by creator and writer Charlie Covell, who previously wove the intricate tale of 'The End of the Fucking World' for Netflix.

As Zeus' reign is threatened by the looming specter of his downfall and the world's inevitable end, revealed to him by a morning revelation of a wrinkle on his brow, he grapples with the foreboding whispers of an ancient prophecy predicting his destruction. "A line emerges, order falters, the family crumbles, and kaos reigns supreme," an enigmatic narrator intones, painting a canvas of dystopian chaos that unfolds before our eyes.

Consumed by paranoia, Zeus is seen clutching a shotgun, teetering on the brink of a perilous self-destruction. The star-studded cast of 'Kaos' further elevates the drama, with Janet McTeer as Hera, Zeus' formidable queen, Nabhaan Rizwan as Dionysus, David Thewlis as the enigmatic Hades, Rakie Ayola as Persephone, Stephen Dillane as the wise Prometheus, Aurora Perrineau as Riddy, and Debi Mazar as Medusa. The ensemble is rounded out by an array of talented actors, including Killian Scott, Misia Butler, Stanley Townsend, Billie Piper, and a cameo by the legendary Suzy Eddie Izzard.

Prepare for an epic journey as 'Kaos' unleashes its chaos upon Netflix on August 29th.
