Jeff Goldblum Is ‘Zeus’ In First Trailer For Netflix Kaos
Whose the king? Jeff Goldblum off course! Behold The first look trailer for Netflix’s Kaos which Mr.Goldblum is king of the gods. All-powerful, cruel, occasionally benevolent.

Nabhaan Rizwan as Dionysus, Killian Scott as Orpheus, Aurora Perrineau as Riddy. Misia Butler as Caneus. Plus Leila Farzad as Ari , Rakie Ayola as Persephone and Stanley Townsend as Minos.
In Kaos, the king aka Zeus loves wearing tracksuits, he’s never been threatened until now. When a one time friend is planning to bring him down….
Jeff Goldblum plays Zeus: king of the Gods, ruler of the world. He’s cruel, stylish and all-powerful.
That is, until he’s not. From BAFTA winning screenwriter and showrunner Charlie Covell (The End Of The F***ing World), KAOS is a bold, darkly comic, contemporary take on Greek mythology: exploring love, power, and life in the underworld.
Having long enjoyed his status as King of The Gods, Zeus’ reign has never been truly threatened. That is until he wakes up one morning and discovers a wrinkle on his forehead. Believing it to be the harbinger of an ancient prophecy which foretells his destruction, neurosis sets in: Zeus becomes convinced his fall is coming. As his paranoia takes hold, the God of Gods – seeing signs everywhere – starts to dangerously self-destruct.
And he’s right to be worried. Zeus’ one time friend and now prisoner, Prometheus, is orchestrating a plan to bring him down. The plan involves three disparate humans, all of whom are totally unaware of their cosmic significance or the part they must play in saving the world. No pressure. (Some pressure).
Billie Piper and Suzy Eddie Izzard join the cast in cameo roles. Kaos will be launched on Netflix later in 2024.
