Netflix dropped the trailer for the upcoming German superhero action-comedy film Freaks - You're One of Us.
The film follows Wendy (Cornelia Gröschel), a mom and fast food worker who discovers she has super strength and invulnerability, powers that her medication had suppressed her entire life. Soon, she and her co-worker Elmar (Tim Oliver Schultz), who has electrical powers and wants to claim the "superhero name" Electro Man, discover that other ordinary people with various powers exist. They are gathered together by a mysterious homeless man named Marek (Wotan Wilke Möhring). As they question what they should do with their powers and deal with the ramifications their powers have on their personal lives, they find themselves in the crosshairs of a conspiracy that may have given them their powers in the first place.
Tipped by a mysterious tramp, a meek fry cook discovers she has superpowers — and uncovers an unsavory, widespread conspiracy.
Directed by Felix Binder and written by Marc O. Seng, Freaks -- You're One of Us stars Cornelia Gröschel, Tim Oliver Schultz, Wotan Wilke Möhring, Gisa Flake, Nina Kunzendorf, Ralph Herforth, Frederic Linkemann, Finnlay Berger and Thelma Buabeng. The film arrives on Netflix Sept. 2.
