Sky reveals Gomorrah – The Origins
TRAILER: Here’s the first footage of Gomorrah – The Origins, Sky’s upcoming six-part prequel to the Italian crime saga inspired by Roberto Saviano’s novel. It will premiere in early 2026.
Set in 1977 Naples, the new series is an origin story tracing the criminal education of a very young Pietro Savastano. The story of how it all began — how the future mob boss will enter a criminal world, against the backdrop of a city in transformation: poor, rough-edged, marked by cigarette smuggling and on the brink of the heroin era. Gomorrah – The Origins will offer a fresh perspective on the roots of Pietro’s power, capturing an era that shaped the face of modern crime.
Luca Lubrano stars as the young Pietro, with Francesco Pellegrino as Angelo ‘A Sirena’, a reluctant gangster under pressure from a legacy he didn’t choose; Flavio Furno 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 as Annalisa Magliocca – and 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.
Produced by Sky Studios and Cattleya, the series is directed by Marco D’Amore, who helmed the first four episodes. He is also co-writer and artistic supervisor. Francesco Ghiaccio directed the final two episodes. The series was created by Leonardo Fasoli, Maddalena Ravagli and Roberto Saviano, and will be distributed internationally by Beta Film.
