Parasyte: The Grey - Release date, cast, trailer, news for Netflix series
The gruesome live-action series is coming soon.
As Parasyte: The Grey nears on Netflix, fans are absolutely buzzing to see the live-action adaptation of Hitoshi Iwaaki’s manga.
The series follows humanity as it attempts to fight back as parasites take over human bodies as hosts and gain power.
An unnerving new trailer has been released, which shows the gruesome parasites taking hold and humanity making a terrifying decision. Basically, it looks absolutely unhinged and we're so ready.
Directed by Yeon Sang-Ho, who's also known for shows like Hellbound and Train To Busan, the series promises to be as horrifying and brutal as we could have hoped.
Here's everything you need to know about the release of Parasyte: The Grey.
