Why We Love It
My name is Victoria Schwab, and I’m so excited to share my new show with you. When I wrote my first book, Vicious, I had no idea how much it would change my life or lead me to where I am today—an author whose books have been translated into 34 languages in over 100 countries. My readers tell me they can’t wait for each new release. From one writer to another, thank you for your support. Today, I’m delighted to share with you something new that will be hitting Netflix later in 2018—First Kill! First Kill is an American supernatural teen drama streaming television series created by yours truly (that’s right!) and will be available on June 10th of next year exclusively on Netflix worldwide!
What Is the Show About?
First Kill follows a group of friends who are trying to find out what caused their friend Brandon (Brendan Robinson) to mysteriously disappear. They quickly discover that a dangerous supernatural force is going around killing people and forcing them into deadly and gruesome games—games that only one can survive. Will our heroes be able to conquer these dark powers and save themselves? You’ll have to watch it to find out!
How Is it Different From Other Paranormal Shows?
This series has everything you’d expect from a supernatural drama like mystery, suspense, and plenty of references to classic literature. It also takes all of these tropes and throws them out in favor of darker, more terrifying themes. There are no vampires or witches here, only demons that want nothing more than to trick innocent people into Hell for eternity. The entire show is about how a young woman deals with growing up in a world where everyone is trying to claim her soul for themselves–and how she fights back! This isn’t just another teen drama; it will keep you on your toes with each episode.
What Makes it Stand Out?
When it comes to teen dramas, The CW’s Riverdale is one of our favorites. It took a novel concept – what if Archie and his friends had an unspeakable secret? – and turned it into a multi-season hit. Much like Riverdale, First Kill has a compelling central mystery at its core. But in addition to that core mystery, there are two things that make it stand out from other teen dramas—namely its casting and directing decisions. And while they don’t seem like they’d be very important factors in whether or not a show works, you won’t believe how much difference they can make! Just check out these reasons why we think you should give First Kill a chance when it drops on Netflix June 10th!
Must-Watch Episodes
If you’re unfamiliar with Victoria Schwab’s short story, First Kill, check out its official trailer above. If you have read it, then stream its first two episodes on Netflix. In addition to showcasing a chilling plot and stellar acting (especially by lead actress Julia Jenkins), they set up an intriguing mythology around a supernatural hitman that will keep viewers coming back for more. For example, The End opens with David (Jenkins) being questioned by Detective Manning about who she is and what happened at Club Electric Acid. Her answers are vague but her loyalty to her boyfriend Max is clear—Manning believes he was killed in action but David knows better because Max is still alive and it was his boss who died in that fight gone bad.
Where Have You Seen These Actors Before?
Between its two lead actors, Elle Fanning and Jennifer Beals, First Kill has a fair number of big-screen stars between its two leads. Fanning is a veteran of major blockbusters like The Beguiled and Maleficent 2; Beals is also known for her role in The L Word as well as appearing on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit as Assistant District Attorney Sylvia Costas.
Here Are Some Fun Facts About Our Favorite Characters
Meet Sarah, our main character. She’s as complex as she is relatable. The show is told from her perspective in a very creative way, and we can’t wait to see where her journey takes us! Her love interest, Liam? He’s perfect! He’s kind of your typical bad boy—he rides a motorcycle and has tattoos that he got without his parents’ permission—but you still can’t help but love him. As for Gwen, Sarah’s mother? Not only is she super-intelligent—she started out as a nuclear physicist before shifting gears and studying psychology—but she also always has everyone else’s best interests at heart. And don’t forget Finn, Sarah’s father?
