Post-apocalyptic comedy series Daybreak gets a first trailer and images

September 16, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

Netflix has released the first trailer and images for the upcoming post-apocalyptic comedy series Daybreak. The series stars Matthew Broderick as a High School Principal who witnesses his students forming into groups of marauding gangs following a nuclear blast, and features a cast that also includes Krysta Rodriguez, Colin Ford, Sophie Simnett, Austin Crute, Alyvia Alyn Lind, Cody Kearsley, Jeanté Godlock, and Gregory Kasyan; check them out below…

High school isn’t the end of the world… until it is. In this post-apocalyptic, genre-bending series, the city of Glendale, California is populated by marauding gangs of jocks, gamers, the 4-H Club, and other fearsome tribes who are kicking ass as they fight to survive in the wake of a nuclear blast (on the night of Homecoming…ugh). Following an eclectic group of survivors as they navigate this strange and treacherous world, Daybreak is part samurai saga, part endearing coming-of-age story, and part Battle Royale. This Generation A series (A for Apocalypse! Get it?) is rated TV MA.
