BBC Children’s & Education has unveiled the first trailer for Gifted, a brand-new action-adventure series launching on CBBC and BBC iPlayer on Monday 24 November.
Adapted from Marilyn Kaye’s bestselling novels by award-winning screenwriter Emma Reeves (The Worst Witch, Eve), Gifted transports viewers to the stunning city of Edinburgh, where a diverse group of Scottish teens discover they each possess extraordinary superpowers – from telekinesis and invisibility to mind reading.
Starring Dominic McLaughlin, the young Scottish actor set to play Harry Potter in HBO’s highly anticipated television adaptation, alongside a stellar cast of young actors, Gifted introduces an exciting new generation of talent to our screens.
The trailer offers a first glimpse of the high-stakes adventures awaiting the young heroes as they navigate friendship, secrets, and a mysterious threat lurking beneath Edinburgh’s historic streets.
Produced by Glasgow-based Black Camel Pictures and Paris-based Media Valley, Gifted is an international co-production commissioned by CBBC in association with NDR/ARD via One Gate Media in Germany, with additional support from Creative Scotland.
