The show launches on 19 November. Anthony Boyle stars as Bankman-Fried, with Julia Garner playing Caroline Ellison, the former crypto executive and his ex-girlfriend. Creator Graham Moore said the series depicts how "Sam and Caroline, with the very best of intentions, talked each other and themselves into committing a number of terrible crimes". Bankman-Fried was sentenced to 25 years in prison in 2024 after being found guilty of seven counts of fraud and conspiracy. He remains imprisoned at a low-security federal facility in California, with a projected release date of Christmas Day 2043. Ellison pleaded guilty and served about 11 months in prison.

New trailer for Inuk series 'North of North' - Season 2 set in Ice Cove. "It's forging yourself into what you want to become." Netflix debuted the official trailer for Season 2 of the hit comedy series titled North of North, a Canadian sitcom set in the very far North in a small Arctic town about Inuk women. Co-created by Stacey Aglok MacDonald and Alethea Arnaquq-Baril, the show follows a young Inuk woman who wants to build a new future for herself after a spontaneous - and extremely public - exit from her marriage. As winter closes in on the Arctic town of Ice Cove, young Inuk mother Siaja (Anna Lambe) is still making bold decisions and even bolder mistakes in her effort to level up her life. The hardest part? Proving to her tight-knit Arctic community and herself, that she's ready to take charge. "A fresh start was just the tip of the iceberg." It was shot on location up in Iqaluit, Nunavut (see Google Maps). Season 2 once again stars Anna Lambe as Siaja, Maika Harper as Neevee, Braeden Clarke as Kuuk, Jay Ryan, Mary Lynn Rajskub, Zorga Qaunaq, Bailey Poching, Nutaaq Simmonds, and Keira Cooper. The first season of the Canadian series North of North debuted in late 2025 last year. This next season is already ready to go and launches on Netflix in November this winter. Get ready for more wild adventures up North. Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Netflix's arctic series North of North - Season 2, from YouTube: You can rewatch the official trailer for Netflix's North of North - Season 1 series right here for the first look. Siaja (starring Anna Lambe) is a young Inuk mother who dreams of reinventing herself in her tiny Arctic community of Ice Cove. After a spontaneous - and extremely public - exit from her marriage, Siaja goes from a stale but stable life at the side of self-absorbed husband Ting (Kelly William) to crashing on her mother Neevee's (Maika Harper) couch with her feisty daughter Bun (Keira Belle Cooper) in tow. Siaja runs at the chance to build a new, independent life for herself, but it won't be easy in a small Arctic town where everybody knows your business. And just when she thinks things couldn't get messier, a surprise visitor named Alistair (Jay Ryan) brings to light a long-held secret from Neevee and Siaja's past. Turns out blowing up her life was the easy part; now comes the hilarious chaos of piecing it all back together. North of North is a series co-created by writers / filmmakers Stacey Aglok MacDonald (Qanurli, The Grizzlies) and Alethea Arnaquq-Baril (Angry Inuk, The Grizzlies) of Red Marrow Media.

Netflix and Until Dawn creators are launching an interactive horror game based on The Conjuring. Spooky season is off to a good start, as Netflix releases a new interactive game set in the universe of The Conjuring, a popular series of horror movies. The Conjuring: Unspoken, developed by interactive horror experts Supermassive Games, becomes available Oct. 13 - making it this year's perfect Halloween activity. The Conjuring is an expansive horror series that began in 2013. It consists of nine movies, including spin-offs. Despite Ed and Lorraine Warren's chapter coming to a close in Last Rites (2025), the universe will continue to grow with the release of a new prequel, The Conjuring: First Communion (2027). Before then, fans will have the pleasure of experiencing the series in a completely different way, as it joins the world of video games in Netflix's latest interactive story. Netflix dips its toes in The Conjuring universe. Netflix worked with Supermassive Games to develop The Conjuring: Unspoken. The studio is known for Until Dawn and other dark narrative games in which players shape the outcome of the story. Until Dawn is one of the most popular games in its genre, so Netflix couldn't have chosen a better development studio for this project. In The Conjuring: Unspoken, gamers play as Francesca Noakes, a demonologist who heads to England to investigate mysterious happenings at the Red Lion Inn. During this experience, players will use their phones as a ghost-hunting tool. It will work as an electromagnetic reader, infrared camera, and spirit box. Players will come across several bone-chilling encounters, but they must persist to complete their goal: find and capture the ghosts haunting the Cooper family. Unspoken takes place in The Conjuring universe, but there is no mention of Ed and Lorraine Warren in the trailer. It is possible that they will make an appearance at some point in the game, as their ventures have taken them to England before (The Conjuring 2). However, this could be a spin-off series, like The Nun and Annabelle, that is somehow connected to The Conjuring. As of now, The Conjuring: Unspoken is exclusive to Netflix, and there are no indications that it will be coming to consoles or PC. Therefore, fans will only be able to play it if they have a Netflix subscription. If you're a fan of Black Mirror: Bandersnatch or Unhinged, The Conjuring: Unspoken should be right up your alley.
