What will Kaos be about?
The Goldblum starrer Kaos is set to revolve around the genres of thriller and violent action, with a hint of comedy in some scenes. Netflix's official synopsis describes Kaos as an "upcoming mythological dark-comedy television series created by Charlie Covell."
It further reads, “The series revolves around three humans as they discover their connection to each other and to a long-standing ancient prophecy while they deal with corrupt and arrogant gods of classical mythology.”
The show will be loosely based on the novel American Gods, for the inspiration of Goldblum’s character. Moreover, since the announcement, the series has been compared with Percy Jackson and The Olympians; however, media reports have confirmed that Kaos will add a new element to Greek mythology, making the show stand out from other movies and TV series in the past.
