Netflix has unveiled the first trailer for First Kill, an upcoming TV series that centers on the complicated, teenage romance between a vampire and a monster hunter – and it's giving us major Romeo and Juliet meets Twilight vibes.
Adapted by V. E. Schwab from her short story of the same name, the supernatural show follows Juliette Fairmont (Sarah Catherine Hook, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do I🦩t), a burgeoning bloodsucker who falls for Calliope 'Cal' Burns (Imani Lewis, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Eighth Grade), unaware that th🉐e latter comes from a longline of world-renowned slayers.
In First Kill's universe, killing a human is a rite of passage for all vampires, allowing them to officially become a part of their powerful legacy. It's the same for hunters, too, only they need to take out one of their fanged foes. So it's no surprise that as the girls' lustful affections for o🤪ne another become common knowledge, their family's aren't best pleased.

"You can't be together, it won't work," Juliette's mother Margot (Elizabeth Mitchell) warns in the dramatic teaser, as Cal's mum Talia (Aubin Wise) states, "I've forbidden you from seeing hꩵer."
Sounds like Cal doesn't listen, though, as Talia declares war on the undead later 𒀰on in the clip. "Juliette and every Legacy in Savannah dies tonight," she says, as the Burns family gather up their scariest-looking weapons.
Will Swenson, Jason Robert Moore, Gracie Dzienny, Dylan McNamara, Dominic Goodman, Jonas Dylan Allen, Ph༒illip Mꦐullings Jr., MK xyz, and Roberto Mendez round out the supporting cast, while Felicia D. Henderson acts as showrunner and co-writer with Schwab. Emma Roberts and Karah Preiss are on board as executive producers.
