Though we’ve never had a royal family of our own here in the United States, the Kennedy dynasty is, or was, the next best thing throughout the mid-20th century. The family destined to be a powerhouse of American politics and culture went from one of the most miraculous stories in the country’s history to one of its most tragic in the span of a few years. Now, there’s a new Netflix original in the works titled Kennedy, and it sounds like something.
I’m not sure if this promising series from Castle Rock creator Sam Shaw and starring Michael Fassbender as family patriarch Joe Kennedy Sr. will end up on the 2026 TV schedule or not, but I have a feeling it’s going to be massive once it does premiere. Well, that and incredibly intense, dramatic, and probably unnerving. Here’s why I can’t wait to watch with my Netflix subscription.
