What is the Red Queen series about? What You Need To Know.
Mare Barrow, a 17-year-old who steals for a living, is the protagonist of the tale. Her blood is crimson, much like that of the average person. Mare, however, stands out because she possesses the Silver ability—supernatural electrokinetic abilities—which allow her to either absorb or emit lightning. She is forced to take on a position for which she was not prepared when she finds herself in front of the Silver court. Red Queen will be turned into a television series for the Peacock streaming service in 2021, with Elizabeth Banks serving as both the director and a regular character.
