However, in Season 2, Anthony Mackie of ‘ The Avengers’ franchise will take up the role. The protagonist of the show, Takeshi Kovacs/Elias Ryker was played by Joel Kinnaman in Season 1.

Vox critic, Todd VanDerWerff, had this to say about the show: “For a series that makes a lot of basic storytelling stumbles and often seems to feature characters who can only speak in exposition, Altered Carbon’s first season is surprisingly gripping, especially in its superior back half.” On the other hand, viewers completely loved the show to the point that it became a talking point on several social media forums. The critical response was mixed to say the least. Subsequently, more than two years after its announcement, Season 1 of ‘Altered Carbon’ made its way to viewers’ screens on February 2, 2018.

While Kalogridis had initially optioned the novel for a full-length feature film, Netflix picked the idea up, and in January 2016, announced that ‘Altered Carbon’ would be made into a web television series instead. Set in a distant future where immortality is theoretically possible and practically feasible, ‘Altered Carbon’ is based on a 2002 novel of the same name by English sci-fi and fantasy novelist Richard K.
