Recently, Netflix released the sci-fi show, Altered Carbon. If you have not seen it yet then I suggest you do. In a futuristic earth, humans can change their bodies like the clothes they wear by implanting a chip containing one’s consciousness into another body. Takeshi Kovacs, a criminal, is tasked with finding a businessman’s killer. The series is based on the book series by Richard K. Morgan.

Takeshi Kovacs is played by Swedish actor, Joel Kinnaman. Roles you might know him as are Rick Flag from Suicide Squad and Stephen Holder from the TV show, The Killing.

If you’re a fan of science fiction with a dash of mystery and mayhem, Altered Carbon is the show for you.
