Ridley Scott <\/strong>is still in the business of creating fantastical sci-fi stories full of emotional depth, showcased by his new HBO Max <\/strong>series Raised By Wolves<\/strong><\/em>. The show premiered in early September, and with three episodes left to go in the season, HBO has already greenlit Season 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raised By Wolves <\/em>has a disarmingly simple premise<\/a>: “Androids are tasked with raising human children on a mysterious planet.” But, as with all of Scott’s works, he delves into the human condition, spirituality, technology, and how all of these combine in a futuristic setting when the survival of the human race is on the line. The casting is absolutely remarkable, as the performances of android actors Amanda Collin<\/strong> and Abubakar Salim<\/strong> are uncanny yet moving. The child actors, led by Winta McGrath<\/strong>, do a fantastic job, as well as Travis Fimmel<\/strong> and Niamh Algar<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
