Sense8: Netflix Series by Makers of 'The Matrix' to Debut

Andy and Lana Wachowski of The Matrix fame are working on a new TV series called Sense8, and it's coming exclusively to Netflix in 2014

The 10-episode first season is produced by the Wachowskis and written by J. Michael Straczynski, best known as the creator of Babylon 5 TV series and his work on Thor and Underworld Awakening.

"We're excited to work with Netflix and Georgeville Television on this project, and we've wanted to work with Joe Straczynski for years, chiefly due to the fact his name is harder to pronounce than ours, but also because we share a love of genre and all things nerdy," said Andy and Lana Wachowski.

Very little is known about the actual content of the series. The Wachowskis claim Sense8 was born from a late-night conversation about "the ways technology simultaneously unites and divides us," and Netflix describes it as a "gripping global tale of minds linked and souls hunted."
