Netflix has released the red band teaser trailer of the Norse mythology-based animated series Twilight of the Gods.
Twilight of the Gods creator and executive producer Zack Snyder said, “My imagination was always really sparked by the Norse gods…Thor, Odin, an adventure story about love and redemption and revenge set in this amazing landscape”. The series is produced by The Stone Quarry and Xilam animation studios and brings Snyder’s daring and spectacular vision of ancient Norse mythology to life.
The synopsis of the series reads
In a mythical world of great battles, great deeds, and great despair, Leif (voiced by Stuart Martin), a mortal king, is saved on the battlefield by Sigrid (Sylvia Hoeks), an iron-willed warrior with whom he falls in love. On their wedding night, Sigrid and Leif survive a wrath of terror from Thor (Pilou Asbæk), which sets them — and a crew of crusaders — on a merciless mission for vengeance, against all odds. This heroic story of love, loss, and revenge is a journey to hell and beyond … across fantastical lands, battlefields fierce and bloody, and wars waged against deities and demons.
The voice cast includes Stuart Martin as Leif, Sylvia Hoeks as Sigrid, Pilou Asbæk as Thor, Rahul Kohli as Egill, Paterson Joseph as Loki, Jamie Clayton as The Seid-Kona, Birgitte Hjort Sørensen as Hervor, Kristofer Hivju as Andvari, Thea Sofie Loch Næss as Thyra, John Noble as Odin, and Peter Stormare as Ulfr, among others.
