Flynne Fisher (Chloe Grace Moretz), her Navy veteran brother, Burton (Jack Reynor), and their dying mother live in a small town in the Blue Ridge Mountains in 2032. As their mother's health deteriorates and medical bills mount, Flynne and Burton earn extra money by playing simulations ("Sims"). Burton is offered a chance to beta test a new Sim, and Flynne ends up playing, pretending to be his brother. The Sim takes place in London and tasks Flynne with breaking into a company known as the Research Institute to steal a valuable secret. When the mission goes wrong, Flynne begins to realize that the Sim is more real than she could have ever imagined. The London she explores exists in the future... the year 2099. And what Flynne discovered at the Research Institute has put her and her family in grave danger. There are people from the future who want to use Flynne for the information she stole... and there are others who want Flynne dead. Flynne meets Wilf (Gary Carr) in the London of the future, a man who could be the key to unlocking this mystery at hand. But first, in his present, Flynne and Burton, along with his former elite military unit, must rally to protect themselves from forces intent on killing them - forces sent from the future to retrieve Flynne's stolen vital secret.

The Peripheral is produced by Amazon Studios and Warner Bros Television, in association with Kilter Films. The executive producers of The Peripheral are creator and showrunner Scott B.
