What is First Kill about?
First Kill will be a retelling of the classic story of vampires vs vampire hunters.
According to Entertainment Weekly, the series description reads: “When it’s time for teenage vampire Juliette (Sarah Catherine Hook) to make her first kill so she can take her place among a powerful vampire family, she sets her sights on a new girl in town named Calliope (Imani Lewis).
“But much to Juliette’s surprise, Calliope is a vampire hunter from a family of celebrated slayers. Both find that the other won’t be so easy to kill and, unfortunately, way too easy to fall for.”
The series is based on a short story from New York Times bestselling author Victoria “V. E.” Schwab, who is also serving as a writer and executive producer for the series.
