Next week Disney+ debuts a brand new adaption of the classic Vertigo comic Y: The Last Man. The hotly anticipated series, which has already aired 3 episodes in the US, adapts the classic comic from writer Brian K. Vaughan.
Last night we were invited to The Vaults in London’s Waterloo for a special first look at the series premiere. The immersive event walked us through the series’ post-apocalyptic landscape complete with actors, sets and activations.
Check out what happened when we entered the world of Y: The Last Man in the player below:
The ensemble cast features Diane Lane as “Congresswoman Jennifer Brown,” Ashley Romans as “Agent 355,” Ben Schnetzer as “Yorick Brown,” Olivia Thirlby as “Hero Brown,” Amber Tamblyn as “Kimberly Campbell Cunningham,” Marin Ireland as “Nora Brady,” Diana Bang as “Dr. Allison Mann,” Elliot Fletcher as “Sam Jordan” and Juliana Canfield as “Beth Deville.” All episodes of the season will be directed by women and the production has a significant number of female department heads, including both DPs, the production designer, costume designer, casting director, editors, stunt coordinator and more.
Y: The Last Man is a 60-issue science fiction comic book series published beginning in 2002. It received three Eisner Awards, and was nominated for the first Hugo Award for Best Graphic Story for Y: The Last Man, Volume 10.
The series will premiere on Disney+ Star on 22nd September 2021.
