LAST MAN STANDING NETFLIX SERIES
Much like the comics, the TV series is set in a post-apocalyptic world where a mysterious cataclysmic event simultaneously kills every mammal with a Y chromosome - a gender-focused Thanos snap if you will. Y: The Last Man is based on the acclaimed comic book series of the same name from DC's adult-oriented Vertigo brand, which ran for sixty issues between 20.

Jennifer is also the mother of Yorick, an amateur escape artist and the titular last man left alive. CR: Rafy Winterfeld/FXĪcting legend Diane Lane is the show's big-name star, who will be portraying US senator Jennifer Brown who takes over as President following the previous head of state's death.
