Netflix releases wild trailer for ‘Maniac’ starring Jonah Hill and Emma Stone

Netflix

• Netflix released a full-length trailer for its limited
  series, “Maniac,” starring Emma Stone, Jonah Hill, Justin
  Theroux, and Sally Field.
• It looks pretty wild.
• “Maniac” drops on Netflix September 21. 

Netflix is all about giving its creators freedom, and sometimes
it has quite wild results.

On Monday, the streaming service released the first full-length
trailer for “Maniac,” a new limited series starring Jonah Hill,
Emma Stone, Sally Field, and Justin Theroux. And it certainly
proves that Netflix let visionary director and producer Cary Joji
Fukunaga go all in. Fukunaga directed all
episodes of “True Detective” season one. 

The show, a sci-fi dark comedy, tells the story of two
strangers (Hill and Stone) who are drawn to each other in the
late stages of a mysterious pharmaceutical trial. It’s loosely
based on a Norwegian series of the same name. 

The trailer shows glimpses of the show’s eccentricities,
including a fantasy world similar to “Lord of the Rings,” Old
Hollywood glam, and a purple Koala puppet. 

“Maniac” comes to Netflix September 21. Watch the trailer
