Long wandering through the forests of development limbo, where even the backing of Guillermo del Toro couldn't get it made as a movie, Travis Beacham's script A Killing On Carnival Row has now spawned an [Amazon TV series](https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07S335481/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&linkCode=ll1&tag=qemparticle70-21&linkId=2c83b65e8ae6498fcc4e97712ab84c68&language=en_GBge=en_GB ). Check out the brief first teaser, which has a warning for the world.
Orlando Bloom and Cara Delevingne star in what's simply called Carnival Row, a series set in a Victorian fantasy world filled with mythological immigrant creatures whose exotic homelands were invaded by the empires of man. This growing population struggles to coexist with humans – forbidden to live, love, or fly with freedom. But even in darkness, hope lives, as a human detective, Rycroft Philostrate (Bloom), and a refugee faerie named Vignette Stonemoss (Delevingne) rekindle a dangerous affair despite an increasingly intolerant society. Vignette harbors a secret that endangers Philo’s world during his most important case yet: a string of gruesome murders threatening the uneasy peace of the Row.
The show also stars David Gyasi as Agreus, a mysteriously wealthy faun who moves into an affluent human neighborhood in defiance of the social order, Karla Crome as Tourmaline, a quick-witted faerie poet driven from her war-torn homeland, Indira Varma as Piety Breakspear, the regal and cunning matriarch of the powerful family that rules the city of The Burgue, and Tamzin Merchant as Imogen Spurnrose, a young woman who sees in Agreus an opportunity to turn her aristocratic family's fading fortunes around.
Carnival Row features the combined writing/producing forces of Marc Guggenheim, René Echevarria, Jon Amiel and Beacham himself. [It'll land on Amazon on 30 August](https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07S335481/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&linkCode=ll1&tag=qemparticle70-21&linkId=2c83b65e8ae6498fcc4e97712ab84c68&language=en_GBge=en_GB ).
