‘Lazarus’ Official Trailer: New Anime From ‘Cowboy Bebop’ Director Features Action Sequences Designed by ‘John Wick’ Director

Release date: April 5, 2025 on Adult Swim, next day on Max.

Synopsis: The year is 2052. The world looked to be on the verge of an unprecedented era of peace and stability, and the painkiller drug “Hapna” developed by a lauded neuroscientist Dr. Skinner had a lot to do with it.

Hapna spread throughout the world as a “miracle drug” with no side effects, freeing humanity from pain. Until, that is, Skinner suddenly disappears off the face of the earth. When he reemerges after three years, it is as a devil who brings countless deaths and the end of civilization.

Hapna turns out to be a drug that has a fatal, retroactive effect, one that appears three years after first taking it; it was a death-trap for anyone who took it, even once. Humanity will start dying off in 30 days. The only way to save the world is to acquire the cure that only Skinner holds.

“Lazarus” is a team of five agents gathered from various corners of the world to do just that. Can they save humanity? And what is Skinner’s true purpose?
