'Origin's Philipp Christopher on the nuances of playing a con-man with a 'hard and appalling exterior'

The German-born actor who has had his stints in iconic TV shows like Sex and The City, lays it down exactly why Origin is the one space adventure show you need to watch.

YouTube might have hopped on the original streaming bandwagon a while ago but it looks like the video platform is stepping up its game this week, with its upcoming space adventure series, 'Origin' which debuts on the network as a YouTube Original, this November 14. We get it - the whole space adventure, survival lore does come off as a little bit done and dusted, with such stellar masterpieces already reigning as frontrunners in the genre. But then there's something so dark and twisted about 'Origin' - or as the trailer has portrayed so far - that it makes one linger on to the hope that maybe this 'Black Mirror' meets 'Aliens' thriller will bring something unique to the table.
