We’re getting the first look at Vampire Academy, Peacock’s YA supernatural drama series from Julie Plec and Marguerite MacIntyre, based on Richelle Mead’s book series. The trailer was unveiled during the show’s panel Thursday at Comic-Con in San Diego. You can watch it above and see some first-look photos below.
Written by MacIntyre, Vampire Academy is set in a world of privilege and glamour, where two young women’s friendship transcends their strikingly different classes as they prepare to complete their education and enter royal vampire society. This serialized and sexy drama combines the elegance of aristocratic romance and the supernatural thrills of the vampire genre.
