Oscar, Emmy, and Tony Award nominee Brian Tyree Henry (Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire) takes on supernatural threats in a Steampunk vision of the Wild West in the first teaser for Netflix’s animated series Bass X Machina.
Bass X Machina was previously dated for an October release but will now debut on Netflix on November 3.
The series is set “in a lawless Steampunk West overrun by brutal outlaws, machines, and supernatural terrors, a father is forced to become judge, jury, and executioner—knowing that every act of justice meant to protect his family may ultimately cost him the very people he’s fighting to save.”
