Sky and Beta Film have unveiled the first teaser for Gomorrah – The Origins, the highly anticipated prequel to the globally acclaimed crime saga Gomorrah.
Produced by Sky Studios and Cattleya (part of ITV Studios), the six-part Sky Original series will debut on Sky and the NOW streaming service in the UK in early 2026.
Set in Naples in 1977, Gomorrah – The Origins explores the early years of Pietro Savastano, a streetwise teenager from Secondigliano. Alongside his friends, Pietro navigates a tough environment marked by poverty and crime, dreaming of becoming like Angelo “A Sirena,” the local neighborhood boss. But as he gets drawn deeper into Angelo’s world, Pietro faces a dangerous power struggle that forces him to question whether his path lies in violence or in his love for Imma, a talented musician with ambitions beyond Naples.
Gomorrah – The Origins is directed by Marco D’Amore, who helmed the first four episodes while also serving as co-writer and artistic supervisor. Francesco Ghiaccio directs the final two episodes. The series is created by Leonardo Fasoli, Maddalena Ravagli, and Roberto Saviano.
Gomorrah – The Origins stars Luca Lubrano as the young and ambitious Pietro Savastano; Francesco Pellegrino (La Santa Piccola) as Angelo ‘A Sirena’, a reluctant gangster under pressure from a legacy he didn’t choose, Flavio Furno (Il Candidato) as ‘O Paisano’, a convict who is rallying followers for a new kind of Camorra; Tullia Venezia as young Imma, a gifted musician with dreams that extend far beyond Naples; and Fabiola Balestriere (Veleno) as Annalisa Magliocca, and the yet-to-become Scianel, still a young mother under the fist of her violent husband. Other cast members include Antonio Buono, Ciro Burzo, Luigi Cardone, Antonio Del Duca, Mattia Francesco Cozzolino, Junior Rancel Rodriguez Arcia, and Antonio Incalza.
Based on Roberto Saviano’s bestselling novel Gomorra, published by Arnoldo Mondadori Editore, the prequel expands the Gomorrah universe with a gritty, emotional look at how loyalty, power, and love shape destiny. International distribution is handled by Beta Film.
