SYFY has released three teaser promos for the Russo Brothers’ forthcoming comic-book series Deadly Class! Starring Doctor Strange‘s Benedict Wong and To All the Boys I Loved Before breakout star Lana Condor, the teasers gives us a preview on what can we expect from the academy for the deadly arts and its badass students. Check out the videos below!

Based on the Image Comics graphic novel, the adaptation was created by Rick Remender — who created the comic series series alongside illustrator Wes Craig — and Miles Orion Feldsott (American Koko).

Deadly Class is set in a dark, comic book world against the backdrop of the late ’80s counterculture. The story follows a homeless teen that is recruited into a storied elite private school where the world’s top crime families send their next generations. Maintaining his moral code while surviving a ruthless curriculum, vicious social cliques, and his own adolescent uncertainties soon prove to be vital. The drama is described as “a coming of age journey full of ancient mystery and teen angst.

Deadly Class stars Benedict Wong (Doctor Strange) as headmaster Master Lin, Benjamin Wadsworth (Teen Wolf) as Marcus, Lana Condor (X-Men: Apocalypse) as Saya, Maria Gabriela de Faria (Sitiados) as Maria, Luke Tennie (Shock and Awe) as Willie, Liam James (The Killing) as Billy, and Michel Duval (Queen of the South) as Chico.

The series is a co-production between Sony Pictures Television Studios and Universal Cable Productions. Remender and Feldsott will executive produce alongside Joe Russo, Anthony Russo (Avengers: Infinity War, Captain America: Civil War), and Mike Larocca (Spy). Chipmunk Hill’s Adam Targum (Banshee) will serve as executive producer on the pilot, along with Lee Toland Krieger (The Age of Adaline), who is also directing.

The series will premiere in 2019 at SYFY.
