Alexander: The Making of a God Trailer Unveils Netflix’s Historical Docudrama

Alexander: The Making of a God’s trailer pulls back the curtain on the Netflix historical docudrama, which examines the legendary titular figure.

The project promises to reveal the “extraordinary life of Alexander the Great”, per the official synopsis. In particular, it will track his rise from an exiled young man and his growing obsession with defeating the Persian Emperor Darius. This led him to “conquer the known world in just under six years.”

The story will be told through dramatic scenes and expert academic insights in addition to ground-breaking archaeology and ongoing excavations at the archaeological site in Alexandria, Egypt led by Calliope Limneos-Papakosta.
