YouTube Originals will host panels for two of its biggest dramas at San Diego Comic-Con on Thursday, July 19, 2018. The panels will feature the critically-acclaimed drama, IMPULSE, and the highly anticipated series coming this fall called, ORIGIN.
ORIGIN, a new YouTube Original series from director Paul W.S. Anderson and the producers of The Crown and Outlander, stars Tom Felton [Harry Potter film franchise, Rise of the Planet of the Apes] and Natalia Tena [Harry Potter film franchise, Game of Thrones]. The 10-episode series follows a group of outsiders who find themselves abandoned on a ship bound for a distant land. Now they must work together for survival, but quickly realize that one of them is far from who they claim to be.
IMPULSE, which released on June 6, 2018 to critical acclaim [currently 100% on Rotten Tomatoes], is from director/executive producer Doug Liman and follows a rebellious 16-year-old girl, Henrietta (aka “Henry”) [played by Maddie Hasson] as she grapples with her newfound ability to teleport while her world spirals out of control, while her sister Jenna [played by Sarah Desjardins], grapples with issues of her own.
