The plot revolves around Harry and June, who run away from their repressive families to be together. But, June has a special gift—she's able to shape-shift.

“As the star-crossed lovers struggle to control this strange new power, a mysterious professor reveals that June is not alone: there are more shifters out there like her, and he promises to cure June and reunite her with the mother who deserted her three years ago.”

It's a thriller, fraught with danger, a love story and eight episodes that look like they'll be keeping us on the edge of our seat.

Mark your calendars: The Innocents will make its debut on the streaming service Aug. 24.
