The first trailer for Clickbait has been released. The new 8-episode Netflix thriller stars Entourage's Adrian Grenier and it releases on August 25.

　　Grenier plays Nick Brewer, an apparently normal husband and dad who suddenly disappears. Soon after, Nick resurfaces online, in a disturbing video in which he has been beaten, holding a sign that reads, "I abuse women. At 5 million views, I die." A hunt for Nick ensues, but as more videos appear, his family starts to suspect that Nick might not be everything he seemed to be. This fast-paced trailer suggests a glossy thriller that combines elements of Search Party, Gone Girl, and the Saw movies--check it below:

　　Netflix describes the show as "a compelling, high stakes thriller that explores the ways in which our most dangerous and uncontrolled impulses are fueled in the age of social media, revealing the ever-widening fractures we find between our virtual and real-life personas."

　　Clickbait also stars Zoe Kazan (The Big Sick, The Plot Against America), Betty Gabriel (The Twilight Zone, Upgrade), and Jessie Collins (Zero Dark Thirty). It's an Australian/US co-production that was shot in Melbourne, with Brad Anderson (The Sinner, Titans, The Machinist) as the show's main director.
