Two white women as main leads ain’t going to cut in 2021 to get the feminist crowd to hype it up aka Bridgerton.
Hopefully if it’s good, it has room to diversify it storytelling.

Joss Whedon is responsible for some of the most beloved genre television series ever made, from “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” to “Firefly” and “Dollhouse.” Now Whedon is back with HBO’s “The Nevers,” albeit with a twist. While Whedon created and executive produced the Victorian Era science fiction series, he announced in November he was stepping away from the series. By this point, “The Nevers” had already wrapped production on its six-episode first season. Whedon is no longer involved with “The Nevers,” but HBO’s teaser trailer for the show is peak Whedon with its clashing of genres and super-powered female action heroes.

‘The Nevers’ Trailer: Victorian Era Gets Superhuman Twist in Joss Whedon-Created HBO Series
HBO
The wait for “The Nevers” is nearly over. HBO has unveiled the official trailer for its Victorian science-fiction drama, created by Joss Whedon. The trailer accompanies news from HBO that “The Nevers” will begin its run April 11.
HBO’s synopsis for “The Nevers” reads: “In the last years of Victoria’s reign, London is beset by the ‘Touched’: people – mostly women – who suddenly manifest abnormal abilities – some charming, some very disturbing. Among them are Amalia True (Laura Donnelly), a mysterious, quick-fisted widow, and Penance Adair (Ann Skelly), a brilliant young inventor. They are the champions of this new underclass, making a home for the Touched, while fighting the forces of…well, pretty much all the forces – to make room for those whom history as we know it has no place.”
Donnelly and Skelly serve as series leads and the show’s supporting cast includes Olivia Williams, James Norton, Tom Riley, Ben Chaplin, Pip Torrens, Zackary Momoh, Amy Manson, Nick Frost, Rochelle Neil, Eleanor Tomlinson, and Denis O’Hare.
Though Whedon, who previously directed “The Avengers” and hit shows like “Firefly” and “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” created and executive produced “The Nevers,” he announced late last year that he was stepping away from the show. Whedon called “The Nevers” in 2018 his most ambitious narrative he had ever created

The commercials really do look like a Penny Dreadful ripoff.
