Altered Carbon (Seasons 1–2)

Altered Carbon (2018) is a Netflix cyberpunk series you can watch online on iFILM, adapted from Richard K. Morgan's novel. Death is optional — if you can afford a new body. Joel Kinnaman leads season one; Anthony Mackie takes over in season two.

Takeshi Kovacs spent 250 years in cold storage. When he's resleeved into a stranger's body, the price of his freedom is one job: find out who killed the man who just hired him. That man is a Meth — one of the ultra-rich who keep backup copies of their minds on a remote server and never truly die. Detective Kristin Ortega, played by Martha Higareda, pulls the case in the opposite direction, and a sentient hotel AI named Poe steals every scene he's in.

The show shifts tone between seasons — season one is noir crime, season two goes full action — but the world-building from Morgan's source material holds it together. Filmed in Vancouver on a budget that shows in every rain-slicked neon frame. Stream all episodes of Altered Carbon online on iFILM.
