Netflix blew the science fiction scene wide open when it released the fantastic Stranger Things last year.
Now, everyone's talking about the release of new sci fi show Altered Carbon.
The dystopian story which is based on Richard K. Morgan’s cyberpunk noir novel, reveals a world where the human mind can be stored digitally and human bodies (called “sleeves”) have become identical, meaning humans can live forever.
Suicide Squad actor Joel Kinnaman plays a former soldier who has been brought back to life to solve a murder. Only, he must figure out who was responsible for killing the person who brought him back.
Keeping up? Don't worry, you still have plenty of time to get your head around it as Altered Carbon isn't set to start streaming on Netflix until February 2, 2018.
