Over the course of the series, they’ll encounter unforgiving environments, violent and intelligent tentacled creatures, carnivorous sea life, fluctuations in gravity, impossible alien structures, and ripples in space and time itself. Our alien sea creatures- untouched for thousands of years and uniquely suited to the darkness of the deep- will be the worst versions of sea life imaginable taking inspirations from iconic monster masters like Tom Woodruff Jr. and Alec Gillis, H.R. Giger, Stan Winston, Guillermo Del Toro and Ben Wanat (Dead Space) and will instill wonder and terror all at once. These carefully combined elements will bring the final important component of human drama and terror into the forefront as our intrepid crew is put through hell in their struggle to survive and peel back the mysteries surrounding Europa.

The Deep will carry a closed 3 season story arc, but each season will be structured like a film with a definitive beginning, middle, and end to its piece of the greater story. There will be no loose ends after the series finale. The ensemble of characters featuring a primarily female-driven cast in Adler, Gage, Bridger, and Kelley, span the entire series allowing an opportunity to attract rising stars like Ana de Armas, Zazie Beetz, and Maya Hawke or bigger names like Ruth Negga, Anne Hathaway, or Emily Blunt to captain the series.
