Netflix has released the first trailer for The Platform 2, a sequel to the streamer’s surprise sci-fi social commentary hit.
Per the official synopsis, the sequel takes us back to the world of The Platform, a “large, tower-style ‘Vertical Self-Management Center’ prison that houses various criminals. The dozens of floors house two occupants per floor and a free-floating platform delivers food to them on a daily schedule.”
Galder Gaztelu-Urrutia returns to direct from a screenplay he wrote with David Desola, Pedro Rivero, and Egoitz Moreno. The cast includes Milena Smit, Hovik Keuchkerian, Natalia Tena, and Oscar Jaenada.
The brief clip, which can be viewed below, is filled to the brim with blood, dead bodies, cannibalism, and fire raining from the sky. As if the first film wasn’t upsetting enough, it looks like we’re in for another sick, sad time.
