Netflix has released a teaser trailer that packs a visual punch typical of the Love, Death + Robots series, hinting at even more intriguing concepts. From the brief footage, we've identified several standout scenes:
- An epic space battle or disaster

The series is executive produced by Tim Miller, known for directing Deadpool, and David Fincher, acclaimed for Seven and The Social Network. Jennifer Yuh Nelson, who contributed to Kung Fu Panda 2 and Shrek Forever After, returns as the supervising director.
In a 2022 interview with Collider, David Fincher expressed his hopes for the series' legacy: "If the legacy of Love, Death + Robots is that there are a handful, fifteen people, ten years from now who became directors or became animators or became motion capture performers or doing voice work because they were such big Love, Death + Robots fans, that's all I care about right now."
He further added, "This show was never going to pay for your Gulf Stream. You're either here because you want to be here or you're not here. We're hoping desperately to get to waste more of our lives toiling in obscurity."
