Streaming services galore. There are just so many and which one do you choose? How about all of them? Ya, we don’t want to spend that kind of money either, but it looks like we are going to. Why?
Strange Angel.
If you haven’t heard of the show, it’s based on George Pendle’s book of the same name. The show follows Jack Parsons (Jack Reynor), a brilliant and ambitious blue-collar worker of 1930s Los Angeles, started as a janitor at a chemical factory but had fantastical dreams that led him to birth the unknown discipline of American rocketry. Along the way, he fell into a mysterious world that included sex magick rituals at night, ultimately becoming a disciple of occultist Aleister Crowley. Parsons used Crowley’s teachings of self-actualization to support his unimaginable and unprecedented endeavor to the stars.
And guys – we’re fans of Bella Heathcote – so excited to see her in the new show.
The cast of STRANGE ANGEL includes star Jack Reynor, Bella Heathcote, Rupert Friend, Peter Mark Kendall, Michael Gaston, Greg Wise, Rade Šerbedžija, Zack Pearlman and Keye Chen.
Strange Angel will premiere on CBS All Access Thursday, June 14. New episodes of STRANGE ANGEL’s 10-episode first season will be available on demand weekly on Thursdays exclusively for CBS All Access subscribers.
