The latest trailer for FX’s forthcoming techno-thriller miniseries Class of ’09 has been released. Brian Tyree Henry and Kate Mara will also appear in the multidecade series. The eight-episode series, which will debut on May 10, centres on Tayo Miller (Henry) and Amy Poet (Mara), who play the two leads. It begins with their recruitment into the FBI from the nursing field and the insurance industry, respectively, and continues with their time at the FBI Academy in Quantico (as members of the titular class of ’09, in scenes reminiscent of Silence of the Lambs).
The video travels into the future and describes Miller and Poet’s involvement in a nefarious high-tech plot, complete with dramatic raids, vehicle chases and gunfights, while the soundtrack becomes more dissonant. The trailer depicts ominous monitor screens and sinisterly lit server banks as Miller and Poet deal with an ever-present threat that threatens the very foundations of justice as the show deals with the rise of artificial intelligence and the nature of humanity in an increasingly AI-dominated environment.

Class of ’09, which was originally approved back in 2021, spans three decades, including the foreseeable future when the American court system heavily relies on artificial intelligence.
