Netflix isn’t finished with Zack Snyder. After teaming with him on Army of the Dead and Rebel Moon, they’re now bringing Twilight of the Gods out. The new animated series takes on Norse mythology. Here’s a synopsis from Netflix.
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.
It stars 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.
The series is co-created by Zack Snyder, Jay Oliva, and Eric Carrasco. It’s executive produced by Snyder, Deborah Snyder, Wesley Coller, and Jay Oliva. Zack directs the first and last episode of the series with Jay Oliva and Andrew Tamandl with Tim Divar and Dave Hartman also directing episodes.
