Netflix has released the first trailer for its new *Little House on the Prairie* series and set the premiere for July 9. (netflix.com) The teaser opens with Laura Ingalls saying, “Once upon a time, Pa, and Ma, and Mary, and Laura,” and introduces Alice Halsey as Laura, Luke Bracey as Charles, Crosby Fitzgerald as Caroline, and Skywalker Hughes as Mary. (netflix.com) Netflix’s Tudum site describes the show as a “reimagining” of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s semi-autobiographical books and says all episodes of Season 1 will arrive on July 9, 2026. (netflix.com) The books were first published in the 1930s and drew on Wilder’s childhood in the American West in the late 1800s. NBC later adapted them into a television series that ran from 1974 to 1983. (netflix.com) Netflix ordered the new series in January 2025, with Rebecca Sonnenshine attached as showrunner and executive producer. Netflix said then that the project would be based on the original book series rather than simply remaking the Michael Landon television version. (deadline.com) That distinction has shaped the rollout. Netflix says the new version is “part family drama, part epic survival tale, and part origin story of the American West,” language that positions it closer to Wilder’s frontier setting than to a straight nostalgia play. (netflix.com) The company has also shown unusual confidence in the project before launch. On March 3, 2026, Netflix renewed *Little House on the Prairie* for a second season more than four months before the first season’s debut. (netflix.com) The trailer’s arrival gives viewers their first extended look at how Netflix plans to introduce the Ingalls family to a new audience on July 9. (youtube.com)
