Featured review
I'm not sure why there are so many low ratings, I thought this was a breath of fresh air in the superhero genre. Kind of top boy meets misfits, low key British drama with mostly black cast. I feel that the low ratings must be from Americans who expect super over the top storylines.
Supacell is a unique take and I felt it captured the reality of what would happen if south london gang members all of a sudden had superpowers- of course they'd be using them for their own selfish needs, humans generally would. I thought it was an interesting thought experiment and it was a delight to watch. I hope there'll be a second series!

Storyline

- TriviaThe series was announced as commissioned by Netflix in November 2021 with Mouktar Mohammed and Henrietta Lee of New Wave as executive producer and associate producer. The executive producers are Anna Ferguson and Steve Searle of Netflix with Mark Hedges as series producer. The production used a specialized ARRI 35 camera which has been designed to show Black skin in the best and most complimentary way.
- GoofsIn the final battle scene Michael begs Dionne to get in the car and drive to hospital. But he had already shown that in battle he could grab people in an instant and take them anywhere and be straight back. Considering the whole season was about saving Dionne's life it was odd he didn't just teleport her to safety then head straight back.
