Exclusive: Art becomes fiction as René Magritte, Salvador Dalí and their peers give the whodunnit genre a surreal makeover in This is Not A Murder Mystery. Deadline can share an exclusive new image from the series, which is produced by Belgium-based indie Panenka.

Hans Herbots, whose directing credits include The Serpent and Paris Has Fallen helmed all six eps. “We wanted to elevate the genre and give it a twist,” he tells Deadline. “This story, this universe, offered a lot of a lot of opportunity to do that.”

“This is not a pipe” is the wording below Magritte’s famous 1929 picture ‘The Treachery of Images’ and This is Not A Murder Mystery features the iconic Belgian artist and several of his surrealist peers.

Warning: This article contains Spoilers for Kaos.

The Furies have a small but significant role in Netflix's Kaos, raising questions about their Greek mythology origin story and how it compares to their appearance. The dark comedy follows three humans Ariadne (Ari), Eurydice (Riddy), and Caeneus who have the power to take down Zeus, the god of thunder and leader of the Greek gods. In addition to these four characters, the Netflix show weaves in a number of gods, goddesses, and figures from Greek mythology, getting a shocking amount right in Kaos.

While some gods like Hera and Dionysus play a central role in the story, others have a much less prominent role. Medusa is only featured in a handful of scenes, but she helps run the Underworld.

This War of the Worlds review contains spoilers.

Dieu merci! My prayers were answered. After two action-heavy, plot-stuffed episodes that replaced atmosphere with incident, this week War of the Worlds got back to what really matters: existential discussions over red wine and 20-year-old songs about the fragility of mortal life. A bomb went off too, for those who prefer their apocalypse more fast and furious. Something for everybody.
