Lost in Space (2018)
Lost in Space (2018) is a science fiction television series that serves as a reimagining of the classic 1965 series of the same name. Developed by Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless for Netflix, the show follows the adventures of the Robinson family, who are among the first colonists sent to settle on a distant planet in the year 2046.
The series centers around Professor John Robinson (Toby Stephens), his wife Maureen (Molly Parker), and their three children—Judy (Taylor Russell), Penny (Mina Sundwall), and Will (Maxwell Jenkins). After their spaceship, the Resolute, is sabotaged, the family crash-lands on an unknown alien planet, separated from the rest of their crew and facing numerous dangers in a hostile environment.
As they struggle to survive and find a way to reunite with other colonists, the Robinsons encounter various challenges, including alien creatures and environmental hazards. The show delves into themes of family dynamics, survival, and the human spirit’s resilience in the face of adversity.
Additionally, the iconic robot (voiced by Brian Steele) plays a significant role, forming a bond with young Will as they navigate the perils of their new world.
With stunning visual effects, engaging character arcs, and thrilling storylines, Lost in Space combines adventure, drama, and sci-fi elements, making it a compelling watch for both fans of the original series and new audiences alike.
