Like I always say, if you want to make a movie or TV series better, simply add ninjas to it. Well, Netflix is doing that very thing and they’re making the streaming service that much better with a brand-new martial arts action infused series called House of Ninjas. Don’t take my word for it though, check out the newest trailer below as a family of Japanese assassins must take up swords and Shuriken Stars again when a crisis hits with bloody vengeance!
Synopsis: Ninjas existed throughout many pivotal times in Japanese history — but what if they were still secretly undertaking missions in modern society? Set in today’s Japan, this series tells the story of the Tawara family, the last ninja clan who abandoned their roots after a mission gone wrong. Now, an unprecedented crisis beckons the family back into action.
From director Dave Boyle, who gave us Man from Reno, House of Ninjas stars Japanese heavy hitter Kento Kaku (AI Amok). Fellow cast members include Yosuke Eguchi, Tae Kimura, Kengo Kora, Aju Makita, Riho Yoshioka, Nobuko Miyamoto, Tomorowo Taguchi, Tokio Emoto, Pierre Taki, Kyusaku Shimada, Mariko Tsutsui, and Tenta Banka.
The premise is pretty clever as the series navigates the story of a secret family of warriors who have given up the life of assassins to live a “normal life” but when the shit hits the fan, they must take up swords again. Looking to blend modern day family drama with lightning efficient fight choreography and some good ‘ol bloodletting, House of Ninjas looks to slice its way to the top from other action series.
House of Ninjas hits Netflix starting February 15th!
