Gong Yoo is potentially the next big name to join a Netflix's original series. This time, it's a sci-fi thriller called 'The Sea of Tranquility', which will starts filming in August.

An entertainment industry official told Sports Chosun on April 21 that Gong Yoo has chosen Netflix's 'The Sea of Tranquility' as his next film. But his agency said he's still considering it. The new film, which is scheduled to be produced as an original Netflix series, is a sci-fi dystopian thriller set on a future Earth in 2075, where water and food are scarce due to worldwide desertification. It tells the story of elite agents going to a research base abandoned on the moon to retrieve mysterious samples.

'The Sea of Tranquility', which has already drawn a lot of attention since the news that Jung Woo Sung will participate as a producer, is also getting known as Park Eun Kyo, who wrote 'Mother', will write the script. It has also been reported that Bae Doo Na will play the role of Jian, an exploration agent, raising expectations among Netflix fans.

'The Sea of Tranquility' is scheduled to be produced in eight episodes, and is expected to begin filming in August.
