Despite there not being much in the way of new shows to replace them thanks to COVID-19, a number of TV series still got the chop this week!

Altered Carbon: Resleeved is Netflix's upcoming anime feature that tells a brand new Takeshi Kovacs story set in the Altered Carbon universe. On the planet Latimer, Takeshi Kovacs must protect a tattooist while investigating the death of a yakuza boss alongside a no-nonsense CTAC agent.

In Altered Carbon, society is transformed by new technology: consciousness can be digitized; human bodies are interchangeable; death is no longer permanent. Season Two of the sophisticated and compelling sci-fi drama finds Takeshi Kovacs (Anthony Mackie), the lone surviving soldier of a group of elite interstellar warriors, continuing his centuries old quest to find his lost love Quellcrist Falconer (Renée Elise Goldsberry). After decades of planet-hopping and searching the galaxy, Kovacs finds himself recruited back to his home planet of Harlan’s World with the promise of finding Quell.

Usually when TV series switch out the actors playing lead characters, it's because of some scheduling conflicts or personal issues. With Altered Carbon, it's all part of the narrative.

The upcoming second season of Netflix's hit cyberpunk adaptation will be premiering in just over a month with Anthony Mackie taking on the leading role as Takeshi Kovacs.

Altered Carbon, a series of science fiction novels by Richard K. Morgan is back! After the first season finished there was a doubt that a second would take place. But Netflix is bringing it back with some of our old favourites

Altered Carbon has taken over a decade to finally hit the small screen. And it's a dark, violent piece of science-fiction that explores multiple intriguing themes.

Mute is the new science fiction movie appearing exclusively on Netflix. It's set in 2052 Berlin and revolves around a mute bartender with a violent past searching for his love.
