Oscar winner Tim Robbins has been tapped as a lead opposite Leslie Mann in The Power, Amazon’s 10-episode thriller drama series based on Naomi Alderman’s feminist sci-fi book, from Sister, Alderman and director Reed Morano.
The world of The Power is our world, but for one twist of nature. Suddenly, and without warning, all teenage girls in the world develop the power to electrocute people at will. It’s hereditary, it’s inbuilt, and it can’t be taken away from them. The Power follows a cast of remarkable characters from London to Seattle, Nigeria to Moldova, as the Power evolves from a tingle in teenagers’ collarbones to a complete reversal of the power balance of the world.
