“Supacell” is a dazzling addition to the superhero genre, delivering a potent mix of thrilling action, heartfelt storytelling, and groundbreaking visual effects. Announced by Netflix in November 2021, the series features Mouktar Mohammed and Henrietta Lee of New Wave as executive producer and associate producer, respectively, alongside Anna Ferguson and Steve Searle of Netflix with Mark Hedges as series producer. The production utilized a specialized Arri 35 camera designed to show Black skin in the most complimentary way, underscoring the series’ commitment to visual excellence.

From the very first scene, “Supacell” captivates the audience with its innovative approach to the superhero narrative. The story revolves around a group of ordinary individuals in London who suddenly find themselves endowed with extraordinary powers. Sweet nurse Sabrina (Nadine Mills) discovers her telekinetic abilities, young troublemaker Tazer (Josh Tedeku) gains the power to turn invisible, inept drug dealer Rodney (Calvin Demba) can run to Edinburgh in seconds, single hard working dad Andre (Eric Kofi-Abrefa) possesses superhuman strength, and the heart of the show, Michael (Tosin Cole), can move through time and space, freeze time and also teleport.

After watching the trailer, I binged the entire first season of Rapman’s “Supacell” in one sitting. The show’s compelling characters and storyline made it impossible to turn away, and I am eagerly awaiting season 2 to see where the story goes next. The series reminded me of “Top Boy” and “Misfits,” but with its own unique style. If you enjoyed those series, this is definitely worth a watch.

One of the standout features of “Supacell” is its strong character development. Each character’s powers reflect their personal struggles and growth, adding a layer of depth that elevates the series beyond a typical superhero tale. Michael, the recently betrothed and closest thing to a traditional hero, faces an existential crisis as he grapples with his unwanted abilities while striving to build a comfortable life with his childhood sweetheart, Dionne (Adelayo Adedayo) and save her from dying which he sees in the future. But we all can agree that all his efforts were useless because Dionne refused to go home when she was told to and ended up dying earlier than she was supposed to.

The visual effects are top-notch, particularly the depiction of the electrical powers. The scenes are thrilling and visually stunning, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats. The series also boasts a diverse cast, delivering powerful performances that drive the emotional core of the show. The chemistry between the cast members is palpable, and their interactions are both engaging and authentic.

Visually, “Supacell” is a feast for the eyes. The special effects are nothing short of spectacular, seamlessly blending with the film’s realistic setting to create a world that feels both fantastical and grounded. The action sequences are exhilarating, choreographed with precision and creativity, ensuring that each fight scene is as captivating as the last.

“Supacell” tackles themes of identity, power, and responsibility with sharp writing, balancing intense action scenes and quieter, character-driven moments. The production values are high, and the use of the Arri 35 camera ensures that the visual representation is both respectful and stunning.

Overall, “Supacell” is a must-watch for fans of the genre. Its unique premise, combined with strong performances and high production values, makes it a standout addition to Netflix’s lineup. Whether you’re a sci-fi enthusiast or just looking for a gripping new series, “Supacell” is sure to spark your interest. This series not only entertains but also invites viewers to reflect on the complexities of power and identity, making it a truly compelling watch.

Not to add too many spoilers, because I’m sure most of us haven’t watched the series yet, I’d rate it a solid 8.5. It was an amazing watch and we can’t wait for season two!
