From fortune telling to fortune hunting, The Luminaries is the latest exclusive content to join the Paramount+ library.
The Luminaries, an intricately woven, suspenseful tale of love, magic, revenge and the lust for gold, is the latest murder-mystery that’s set to have you couch-bound.
Streaming exclusively on Paramount+ from Sunday, 31 October, and based on the best-selling novel of the same name, The Luminaries follows a defiant young adventurer Anna Wetherell (Eve Hewson, Robin Hood), who has sailed from Britain to New Zealand to begin a new life.
There she meets the radiant Emery Staines (Himish Patel, Yesterday), an encounter that triggers a strange kind of magic that neither can explain. As they fall in love, driven together and apart by fateful coincidence, these star-crossed lovers begin to wonder: do we make our fortunes, or do our fortunes make us?
Also starring Aussie – or those we’ll claim as Aussie! – actors Ewen Leslie, Erik Thomson, Callan Mulvey and Michael Sheasby, nothing is as it seems in this gold rush tale of extreme fortune and fate.
The Luminaries joins a host of exclusive and original content streaming on Paramount+ including American Rust, Five Bedrooms, Coyote, Dragging The Classics: The Brady Bunch, Dan Brown’s The Lost Symbol, Why Women Kill, iCarly, Two Weeks To Live and Everyone Is Doing Great, with Yellowjackets and Dexter: New Blood streaming soon.
You can stream 20,000 hours of unique stories, iconic stars, live sport and a mountain of entertainment on Paramount+ for $8.99 per month or $89.99 for an annual subscription.
