The Essex Serpent is a story about a fictional village descending into madness as more and more people become convinced that there is a mythical beast in the nearby waters. The first trailer for Apple's upcoming adaptation of The Essex Serpent shows a complicated romance that the company is interested in exploring.
After the death of her abusive husband, Cora Seaborne (Claire Danes) and her companion Martha (Hayley Squires) embark on a quest to become a paleontologist in the fictional village of Aldwinter. Local tales of a massive primordial serpent capable of causing earthquakes are cause for alarm for most in the village and have led to a kind of collective paranoia. Her passion and curiosity about the so-called "blackwater beast" is part of what makes her so fascinating to figures like reverend Will Ransome and Dr. The village seems to have some sort of impact on it because of the presence of the rumored beast.
On May 13th, the Essex Serpent will be on Apple TV Plus.
