A large portion of the Season Two trailer for "The Magicians" takes place in the magical world of Fillory, where magic is dying. The students of Brakebills University learn that if magic dies in Fillory, it dies everywhere. The fate of the world is in the young magicians' hands, as scenes depict them coming together to battle an evil new threat.
In the Season Two trailer for "The Expanse," we learn that 200 years from now Earth has colonized Mars and the asteroid belt, yet deception and injustice still rule. The three are on the verge of war, and it's time to pick a side.
