When a young man's telekinesis is discovered by the military, he is taken in to be turned into a super-weapon and his brother race to save him before
Manhattan is destroyed by his powers. Kaneda is a bar owner in Neo-Manhattan who is stunned when his brother, Tetsuo, is abducted by government
agents led by The Colonel. Desperate to get his brother back, Kaneda agrees to join with Ky Reed and her underground movement who are intent on
revealing to the world what truly happened to New York City thirty years ago when it was destroyed. Kaneda believes their theories to be ludicrous but
after finding his brother again, is shocked when he displays telekinetic powers. Ky believes Tetsuo is headed to release a young boy, Akira, who has
taken control of Tetsuo's mind. Kaneda clashes with the Colonel's troops on his way to stop Tetsuo from releasing Akira but arrives too late. Akira soon
emerges from his prison courtesy of Tetsuo as Kaneda races in to save his brother before Akira once again destroys Manhattan island, as he did thirty
years ago. (August - November / Release Date: May 21, 2021)

Katie Otto, a confident, unapologetic wife and mother of three, raises her flawed family in the wealthy town of Westport, Connecticut, filled with "perfect"
mommies and their "perfect" offspring. Luckily, her husband, Greg Otto, supports her in every way possible, but with a dash of reality thrown in as they
work to ensure their children do not end up like everyone else. Despite her flaws and unconventional ways, Katie ultimately only wants the best for her
kids and will fight tooth-and-nail to instill some good old-fashioned values in them, if it's the last thing she does. (August 5 - December 20)
