Considering Netflix has so many TV projects on the horizon, it makes sense for bosses to play around with the format of announcing projects; with its element of mystery, The OA looks like the perfect series to ‘do a JJ Abrams’ with.
The OA will be available on Netflix, Friday 16 December.
Batmanglij – who has directed all eight episodes – is the filmmaker behind Sound of My Voice and The East, two psychological thrillers that The OA looks to take influence from.
The series is called The OA, and is thje latest project from Zal Batmanglij and Brit Marling who stars in the lead role as Prairie Johnson, a blind girl who went missing in her 20s.
