So Epic! Here's The Trailer For The Dark Crystal:Age Of Resistance
Hello nerds!
The official trailer for the prequel to the 1982 classic, Jim Henson’s The Dark Crystal, has arrived and this series looks to be just as magical as its predecessor. Thanks in no small part to an good director, an all-star cast, and a heavy dose of puppets and practical FX. Sometimes, the old ways are best.
Directed by Louis Leterrier, The Dark Crystal:Age of Resistance’s cast features Taron Egerton, Nathalie Emmanuel, Anya Taylor-Joy, Mark Hamill, Helena Bonham-Carter, Keegan-Michael Key, Eddie Izzard, Alicia Vikander, Simon Pegg and Andy Samberg, to name a few.
Fans of Henon’s magical creations have hoped for a sequel to the original 1982 classic for some time. But, if you’ve seen the original film, you know there might not be much more of a story to tell. So, I suppose we’ll have to make due with this fantastic looking show.
And even though we’ve got a pretty good ideas how things in the prequel series will end on a somber note, I’m sure this series will be an absolute treasure.
The Dark Crystal:Age of Resistance premieres on August 30, 2019 on Netflix.
“Based on “The Dark Crystal,” Jim Henson’s groundbreaking 1982 feature film, “The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance” tells a new epic story, set many years before the events of the movie, and realized using classic puppetry with cutting edge visual effects. The world of Thra is dying. The Crystal of Truth is at the heart of Thra, a source of untold power. But it is damaged, corrupted by the evil Skeksis, and a sickness spreads across the land. When three Gelfling uncover the horrific truth behind the power of the Skeksis, an adventure unfolds as the fires of rebellion are lit and an epic battle for the planet begins.”
