Netflix has officially revealed the release date and full trailer for its new series, The Decameron.

With an intriguing mix of cunning and outrageous characters, this eight-episode series promises to be a gripping watch. Kathleen Jordan, known for Teenage Bounty Hunters and American Princess, serves as the creator and showrunner.
