New 'Raised By Wolves' Trailer: Ridley Scott's Latest TV Show Teases A New Human/Android Conflict

The latest trailer for Ridley Scott‘s “Raised by Wolves” teases a holy war that ended life on Earth, and the resulting conflict between the androids raising the next generation of humans and those who want to take the children away.

The trailer shows even more imagery that looks like a mix of Scott’s “Alien” prequels and “Blade Runner,” with vast, desolated planets, and silver color-coded androids. More importantly, the trailer teases the moody tone to what clearly seems like a tension-filled show. Religion seems to be a big theme of the show, with the two androids — dubbed Mother and Father — raising humanity’s last hope as atheists, and a scary group of humans dressed as Crusaders tracking down Mother to take her children away.

More notable is how the trailer shows Mother off as a very dangerous threat to her enemies. She seems genuinely concerned for her children, and very much capable of vaporizing those who want to take her children away, and it seems she can also fly? We don’t know, but sure are excited about this show.
