'The Peripheral' teaser: Chloë Grace Moretz travels to the future in Jonathan Nolan's mind-blowing post-apocalyptic series

Chloë Grace Moretz takes us into the future with Prime Video's 'The Peripheral'

The time travel series is based on the bestselling science fiction novel by author William Gibson, and is adapted for the screen by Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan, the creators of 'Westworld'. The show will premiere October 21 on Prime Video.

In the vein of 'The Matrix' and 'Total Recall', 'The Peripheral' introduces viewers to another dimension: only this time it's a journey into the future, not an alternate past. The cast includes Jack Reynor, Gary Carr, Eli Goree, Louis Herthum, JJ Feild, T'Nia Miller, Charlotte Riley, Alexandra Billings, Adelind Horan, Alex Hernandez, Katie Leung, Julian Moore-Cook, Melinda Page Hamilton, Chris Coy, and Austin Rising.

According to an official synopsis, "The Peripheral" centers on Flynne Fisher (Moretz), a woman trying to piece together the pieces of her broken family in a forgotten corner of tomorrow's America. Flynne is smart, ambitious and doomed. She has no future; until the future calls. The Peripheral is master storyteller William Gibson's dazzling and mind-bending insight into the fate of humanity - and what lies beyond.
