Unfamiliar is a six-episode espionage thriller which is already climbing the Netflix charts.
Unfamiliar is Netflix’s latest spy thriller
Unfamiliar follows two married former spies unable to escape their killer past.
Unfamiliar has just arrived on Netflix and the series, which is just one of many hit Netflix thrillers, centres around a couple, Simon and Meret Schäfer (played by Felix Kramer and Susanne Wolff) who run a safe house in Berlin.
They lead a seemingly idyllic life until ghosts from their past come knocking. With their cover blown, they are forced to face the lies they told those closest to them.
The thriller, which has already received rave reviews, sees Meret and Simon celebrating their daughter Nina’s (Maja Bons) 16th birthday, when they become suspicious of a mysterious man who asks for their help.
The person who sent the man to them is Josef Koleev (Samuel Finzi), a high-ranking Russian military intelligence officer suspected of espionage.
While the series is set in Germany, fans are keen to find out if the series is dubbed and here is all you need to know.
Unfamiliar was dubbed by Sound & Vision Studios and before it was released, Netflix confirmed the German spy series would provide subtitles and dubbing options in multiple languages.
This means viewers are able to select their preferred language and the show includes English subtitles so UK audiences can follow the story.
The series has already received positive feedback from fans who took to IMDb reviews to share their thoughts, with some awarding it 10 out of 10 stars.
Fiegehen commented: “10 for all the right reasons. Excellent plot and acting. Understated dramatic sequences far from the over-cooked American style. Clever special ops and spy aspects bringing MI6, BND and Spetnaz together.
“Expectations are challenged by exceptional and unexpected outcomes. Not your usual drama action piece.”
NuoS-91 hailed it “smart, tense and suspenseful”, adding: “When I saw the rating was below 7.0 I almost skipped the show. Glad I didn’t!
“This is the best suspense series on Netflix in the past few months. I really enjoyed the storytelling and character building, aside from the fantastic action scenes.
“Every character was there for a reason and there was no wasted details. Not sure how anyone can call this ‘boring’. Give it a try if you like suspenseful dramas!”
EinarssonO shared: “I couldn’t stop. I watched all the episodes straight through until 2:30am. So much better than the usual Hollywood-glam-makeup-productions.
“It may be a bit irrelevant but I also liked that the series was in German. It’s been almost 50 years since I studied German in school and I surprised myself by understanding quite a bit.”
