Sparks Fly in Trailer for 'The Power' Series Adaptation

Prime Video released the first teaser trailer for its new series The Power, and it's already electrifying. The new thriller comes from Amazon Studios and SISTER, and is an adaptation of Naomi Alderman's award-winning novel of the same name. It follows a group of teenage girls who gain the power of electrocution.

The trailer begins as Toni Collette's Mayor Margot Cleary-Lopez reveals the mysterious cause of the girls' newfound powers, and her reaction already demonstrates that it's a phenomenon meant to be taken seriously. She holds a press conference to emphasize that what's happening isn't a hoax. As she does, the girls affected wreak havoc as they test out their powers, electrocuting anything ranging from relatively minor objects to entire, massive places.

Though confused about their new abilities, they begin to experience a broader strength within themselves and each other.

The series is showrun and executive produced by Raelle Tucker. SISTER's Jane Featherstone and Naomi de Pear executive produce alongside Alderman, Claire Wilson, and director Reed Morano. Sarah Quintrell and Tim Bricknell co-executive produce.

The Power premieres Friday, March 31 on Prime Video. New episodes will release weekly every Friday up until the season finale on May 12. Watch the teaser trailer below:
