Upload imagines a future in which dying people have the option of being uploaded into a digital paradise rather than face the unknown. The series follows Nathan (Amell), a young app developer who suffers a sudden accident that lands him in the hospital and forces him to make the tough decision about his fate. After deliberating with his flaky girlfriend Ingrid (Allegra Edwards), he chooses to be uploaded to Horizon company’s Lakeview which is her family’s virtual afterlife location.
Once Nathan is uploaded, he meets his “Angel,” customer service rep Nora (Andy Allo) who quickly becomes his friend and confidant. But when things grow more serious between them, Nathan’s afterlife becomes less clear. If you haven’t tuned in, now’s the time as Season 2 is on the way. Don’t miss it.
