Netflix has shared the official trailer and key art for Zack Snyder’s Twilight of the Gods, which the streaming service describes as “an all-new daring and spectacular animated vision of Norse mythology.”
Consisting of eight episodes, the series will premiere on September 19, 2024.
In a mythical world of great battles, great deeds, and great despair, Leif, a mortal King, is saved on the battlefield by Sigrid, an iron-willed warrior with whom he falls in love.
On their wedding night, Sigrid and Leif survive a wrath of terror from Thor, which sets them – and a crew of crusaders – on an against-all-odds and merciless mission for vengeance.
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 Gods and demons.
Twilight of the Gods features the voices of Sylvia Hoeks as Sigrid, Stuart Martin as Leif, Rahul Kohli as Egill, Paterson Joseph as Loki, Jamie Clayton as Seid-Kona, Pilou Asbæk as Thor, 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.
From Stone Quarry Animation, the animated series is co-created by Zack Snyder, Jay Oliva, and Eric Carrasco and executive produced by Zack Snyder, Deborah Snyder, Wesley Coller, and Jay Oliva. The animation house is Xilam Animation.
Zack Snyder directs the first and final episode, while additional directors include Jay Oliva and Andrew Tamandl with Tim Divar and Dave Hartman.
