In this modern reimagining of the infamous study, 30 people enter a real prison for two weeks and shifting power dynamics expose what they're capable of. Randomly assigned as guards or prisoners, they will navigate a system of power, hierarchy, and control, revealing whether ordinary people conform to their given roles or if empathy and morality can withstand the pressure.

The series was filmed in a real prison facility, unlike the original 1971 experiment which took place in the basement of Stanford University.
The production team used robotic cameras to film 24/7 to minimize direct interaction between the crew and participants.
The series includes a panel of experts: a behavioral psychologist, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, and a retired federal correctional professional.
The announcement of the series sparked ethical debates online due to the controversial nature of the original experiment.
