Creator

The show, created by René Echevarria and Travis Beacham, is directed by Jon Amiel. The project is based on Beachem's 'A Killing on Carnival Row' which appeared on the very first installment of the Hollywood Blacklist in 2005.

Plot

The series, set in a Victorian fantasy world, follows Delevigne's character who flees her homeland after an invasion turns the place into a war-zone and falls in love with Bloom's stern human detective character. According to Amazon, 'Carnival Row' is "a series set in a Victorian fantasy world filled with mythological immigrant creatures whose exotic homelands were invaded by the empires of man. This growing population struggles to coexist with humans — forbidden to live, love, or fly with freedom."

In the increasingly intolerant world that they live in, a refugee faerie and human detective rekindle hope by striking a romantic affair. Vignette (Delevigne) harbors a secret that endangers Philo's (Bloom) world during his most important case yet: a string of gruesome murders threatening the uneasy peace of the Row.
