Sky preview second series of The Lazarus Project

Sky have today released the official trailer and launch date for the return of Sky Original sci-fi thriller, The Lazarus Project.

Starring Paapa Essiedu and Caroline Quentin.

When the world locks into a never-ending time loop that will ultimately end with the planet’s complete extinction, the Lazarus team must race against time to find a solution before humanity is wiped out forever. Among their number is resolute Lazarus agent, George (Paapa Essiedu), who’s been left in disgrace after betraying the organisation in the name of love.

George is determined to redeem himself and win back the trust of his friends, colleagues, and the love of his life. But when he discovers that the cause he’s fighting is more sinister than it appears, George begins to suspect that the only person he can really trust is himself.

The action packed second series is led by Emmy and BAFTA-nominated Pappa Essiedu (I May Destroy You), with Anjli Mohindra (Bodyguard), Charly Clive (Pure), Vinette Robinson (Boiling Point), Rudi Dharmalingam (Wakefield), Caroline Quentin and Tom Burke (Strike) all reprising their roles.

The Lazarus Project is a timely and affecting exploration of the desire to take charge of your own fate. The second series starts on November 15th.
