The first trailer for Netflix's upcoming thriller series Eric is here, and it sees Doctor Strange star Benedict Cumberbatch play a troubled creative who befriends a giant, gruff-talking "monster" as he searches for his missing son.
Created by Abi Morgan, whose previous works include The Iron Lady and Shame, the '70s six-parter follows Vincent, a New York City-based puppeteer who's being pressured by the producers of his children's TV show Good Day Sunshine to boost its declining ratings. His teammates start encouraging him to think up a new character, and some fresh material that'll appeal to older viewers, but hot-headed Vincent isn't so keen to implement the changes.
