The Umbrella Academy
This Netflix original series centres around the super dysfunctional members of The Umbrella Academy. The first season of this highly-anticipated series is set to be globally lauched on February 15, 2019.
On the same day in 1989, 43 infants are inexplicably born to random, unconnected women who showed no signs of pregnancy the day before. 7 are adopted by a billionaire who creates The Umbrella Academy and prepares his “children” to save the world.
Now, the 6 surviving members reunite upon the news of their father’s passing and must work together to solve a mystery surrounding his death.
But the estranged family begins to come apart due to their divergent personalities and abilities as well as the imminent threat of a global apocalypse.
The Umbrella Academy is based on the comic book series created and written by Gerard Way, illustrated by Gabriel Bá, and published by Dark Horse Comics.
