Netflix Instant will air ten episodes of the new sci-fi TV series Sense8 starting in late 2014, created by The Matrix‘s Andy and Lana Wachowski and Babylon 5‘s J. Michael Straczynski.

Sense8 is described as “a gripping global tale of minds linked and souls hunted” that incorporates Wachowskis’ storytelling style. “Andy and Lana Wachowski and Joe Straczynski are among the most imaginative writers and gifted visual storytellers of our time,” Netflix chief content officer Ted Sarandos explained.

Andy and Lana Wachowski added, “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.”

The series will be produced by Georgeville TV, Reliance Entertainment/Motion Picture Capital’s TV studio, in association with Andy and Lana Wachowski’s Studio JMS, according to Deadline.
