Sense 8, the Netflix original series by Lana and Lilly Wachowski, is returning for a two-hour Christmas special that will premiere on December 23rd. But this isn't like the Star Wars Christmas special with song and dance… this looks like a major part of the story. The second, 10-episode season, kicks off on May 5th, 2017.

The series about a group of people around the world suddenly linked mentally and now being hunted by those who see them as a threat to the world's order stars Aml Ameen, Doona Bae, Jamie Clayton, and Daryl Hannah.

Below the trailer is a video where Lana Waschowski explains why they did a Christmas Special.
