Raised by Wolves (2020)
Executive producer, Ridley Scott has given us at least one other example of the masonic square and compasses introduced into his films. This science-fiction television series, depicting the results of a global religious war presents the emblem as identifying a sun-worshiping cult. Although no mention is made of it, three of the Mythraic clerics are shown with a square and compasses tattoo on their wrists: Furfur, in episode 4, and Justina, the officiant at Campion's baptism and Danjal, in episode 7. Considering the melange of symbols presented throughout the series, the use of the masonic emblem — even without the letter "G" — does not appear to have any masonic significance.

Unrelated, in episode 5 the android Necromancer, Mother, experiences a memory of walking past a stained glass window in which one panel of six displays an all-seeing eye and triangle. Never seen in sharp focus, the other panels appear to depict an Orphic Egg, Sol Mithras, a human body in a pentagram from Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa's Libri tres de occulta philosophia, a sun face, and Sol Invictus or Sol Mithras, from a statue currently in the Musei Vaticani, Rome.
