Into the Night begins with a sudden solar event, as the sun inexplicably starts killing everything in its path. The show centers on the lucky passengers and crew of an overnight flight out of Brussels, as they attempt to fly west — into the safety of the dark night. The plane’s manifest is multinational and multilingual, with passengers rich and poor, young and old, civilian and military. The seemingly ordinary travelers share but one thing: a desire to survive the sun — and each other — by any means necessary.

The cast also includes Yassine Fadel (The Team), Laura Sepul (Public Enemy), and Nicolas Aleshine.

A production of Entre Chien et Loup (Public Enemy), the series is created and written by showrunner and executive producer Jason George (The Protector, Narcos) and directed by the Belgian duo of Inti Calfat and Dirk Verheye (Over Water). Other executive producers include Oscar® nominee Tomek Baginski (The Cathedral) and Jacek Dukaj.

Into the Night will launch globally on Netflix in 2020. (You can add it to your queue now.)

Stay tuned for updates.
