Deep in the rain forests of Costa Rica is a commune run by a man known as Natureboy. Is it an off-the-grid utopia, or a modern-day cult compound? You can decide after watching the ABC News docuseries The Cult of NatureBoy, which will premiere on Hulu on April 28. Collider is proud to exclusively present the first trailer for the series.
In the trailer, we’re introduced to Eligio Bishop, alias NatureBoy. With his charm and charisma, he’s accumulated a sizable following on social media. Starting in 2016, he began to recruit his followers into a movement called Carbon Nation, which intended to create a Black utopia in a remote region of Costa Rica, rejecting technology and society for a new way of living. However, as former members of Carbon Nation attest to in the trailer, it was no paradise. According to them, Bishop became increasingly violent and unstable, proclaiming himself a messiah.
The trailer features extensive footage from the group’s home base, which becomes increasingly disturbing as the series’ four episodes unfold. Eventually, online sleuths and the authorities bring the reign of NatureBoy to its shocking conclusion. You’ll see it all unfold for yourself when you tune into The Cult of NatureBoy on Hulu next week.

02
You have to get somewhere dangerous, fast. How do you travel?
How you get there is half the mission.
AOn foot through terrain no one else would attempt — I move where vehicles can’t follow.
BOn a motorcycle, a cargo plane, or anything else that gets me there before I think too hard about it.
CIn something that belongs to someone else — borrowed, stolen, or improvised under fire.
DFirst-class, with a cover identity and a gadget that does something I won’t explain until it’s needed.
EBy whatever means are available — I’ve driven, flown, and once arrived by camel. The destination matters, not the method.
