“People will believe what they need to believe. The truth is the truth, but it’s not always the most important thing.” Netflix has revealed a first look teaser trailer for an intense new upcoming thriller series called Zero Day, debuting to watch on Netflix streaming starting in late February (this teaser will also air during NFL games). This highly anticipated Netflix conspiracy series is about finding the perpetrators of a devastating cyber attack (known as “Zero Day”) that has caused chaos around the country. In the midst of crisis: how can we discover the truth when it seems that the world is being destroyed by uncontrollable forces? Also, to what extent are conspiracy theories our own inventions or products of our imagination? For those curious to learn more, you can watch Alex Gibney’s doc film also titled Zero Days about the realities of a cyber attack like this. Starring Robert De Niro as a former President, Angela Bassett as the current President, Lizzy Caplan, Jesse Plemons, Joan Allen, Connie Britton, Matthew Modine, Dan Stevens, Bill Camp, Gaby Hoffmann, and Clark Gregg. This certainly looks like a zeitgeist thriller – not only about the age of misinformation we’re in now, but also criticism of America’s response to 9/11 and many bad things they did.
