Netflix is to begin prep for a new Horizon series which will film in Toronto Canada. The story is set in a post-apocalyptic United States, between the states of Colorado, Wyoming and Utah, in the 31st century. Humans live in scattered, primitive tribes with varying levels of technological development. Their technologically advanced predecessors are remembered as the “Old Ones”. Large robotic creatures, known as “machines”, dominate the Earth. For the most part, they peacefully coexist with humans, who occasionally hunt them for parts. However, a phenomenon known as the “Derangement” has caused machines to become more aggressive towards humans, and larger and deadlier machines have begun to appear. There are four tribes that are prominently featured: the Nora, the Banuk, the Carja and the Oseram.
The Nora are fierce hunter-gatherers who live in the mountains and worship nature as the “All-Mother”. The Carja are desert-dwelling city builders who worship the Sun. The Banuk consists of wandering clans made up of hunters and shamans who live in snowy mountains and worship the machines and their “songs”. The Oseram are tinkerers and salvagers known for their metalworking, brewing, and talent as warriors.
“Horizon” Cast and Crew
Little is known about the cast and crew that will be developing the new Horizon series. The only names attached to the project at this point are PlayStation Production producers Carter Swan and Asad Qizilbash. They are working collaboratively on all other current PlayStation productions to include the upcoming Uncharted 2 movie.
