“In the series, Su-in, a young woman caught between her humanity and parasitic influence, embodies this recurring theme of coexistence. As Heidi, the parasite that latched onto Su-in in the aftermath of a near-fatal accident,” reads the series’ latest logline. “But as a mutant that’s half-parasite and half-human, Su-in doesn’t fully belong to either side — neither the parasites seeking to take over human society nor the team dedicated to eradicating parasitic organisms. And it’s this tension that plunges viewers into the heart of the conflict.”
Parasyte: The Grey is inspired by the popular Japanese manga written and illustrated by Hitoshi Iwaaki. It is scheduled to start streaming on April 5.
