Created by Brian Yorkey, and exec produced by Selena Gomez, the 13-episode series follows teenager Clay Jensen (newcomer Dylan Minnette) who returns home to find a mysterious box with his name on it lying on his porch.

Check out the teaser below and date announcement, it feels like it’s got a nice mysterious edge, let us know your thoughts if you fancy it…

13 Reasons Why launches globally via Netflix on Friday 31 March 2017.
