Noomi Rapace is going on The Trip with Netflix this week, and a new trailer gives us a first look at the dark comedy.

The series which co-stars Aksel Hennie and is directed by Tommy Wirkola, follows Lars (Aksel Hennie) and Lisa (Noomi Rapace), a couple who have lost much of the love that brought them together in the first place. Now, they’re struggling to maintain their marriage and their ambitions. Lars’ career as a director has stalled out in soap operas, and Lisa hasn’t landed a part in years. Lars feels ignored, suspects he’s being cheated on, and struggles financially. Lisa thinks Lars is a spoiled, self-centered coward.

Nothing about their lives turned out the way they’d thought it would – their marriage least of all. So a weekend trip to the family cabin in the woods seems to offer them both an opportunity to get rid of the other. Permanently.

But not even this goes according to plan. The trip involves more surprises and unforeseen turns of events than they’d imagined. 

You can find out what they are on Friday 15th October, when the series premieres on Netflix. Here’s the trailer:

 

The Trip is available on Netflix UK, as part of an £9.99 monthly subscription.
