Trailer: Netflix’s new horror series The Rain

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

The new Netflix horror series THE RAIN will be hitting the streaming giant internationally on May 4 and thus far we have seen a quick trailer which basically just announced the show's premiere date. But all of that changes today as we now have the series' full trailer for your viewing pleasure.

It really makes the series look like a continuation of, let's say, Danny Boyle's 28 DAYS LATER – but that's not necessarily a bad thing! You can check out the full trailer below and then make sure to hit us up and let us know how excited you are about this new Netflix series in the comments below or on social media!

Synopsis via Digital Spy:

The Rain picks up six years after a brutal virus carried by rain wiped out almost all humans in Scandinavia, and follows two Danish siblings as they emerge from the safety of their bunker to find all remnants of civilization gone and very few survivors. Set free from their collective past and societal rules, the group set out on a danger-filled quest through abandoned Scandinavia, searching for any sign of life. However, the task is complicated when tensions in the group start to rise as the rain pours in.

THE RAIN is created by Jannik Tai Mosholt and stars Alba August, Mikkel Boe Følsgaard, Lucas Lynggaard Tønnesen and Lars Simonsen. The show will launch internationally on Netflix May 4.
