Attention! This is not a drill!

The Murderbot AppleTV show officially has a trailer!

Here are some additional details, but the most important info is that the first two episodes with premiere on Friday, May 16th. It will then release new episodes every Friday and will have a total of ten episodes.

Sarah: I am busy, I have things to do. I have watched it three times and paused on several different scenes. I think it looks SO FREAKING GOOD and I am beside myself.

I’ve been cautiously but seeing the stills from the Vanity Fair article (Paywalled, but reddit has some) I was optimistically excited. Now I have full on lost all control of myself. Just watched a third time.

I like the voice over, I like Skarsgåd’s dry bewilderment and discomfort, and I love the visuals, the casting, the fandom nods I’ve already spotted, the fact that we get scenes from The Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon?!?! The casting seems terrific – Ratthi, Mensah, and Gurathin in particular – and the visual nods to the Subterranean Press illustrations!

I am not okay. I am unable to can. I AM MADE OF EXCITEMENT AND RAINBOWS. Sarcastic rainbows.

Have you watched the trailer yet? What do you think?
