The bloom is off the rose of Zack Snyder’s relationship with Netflix. Plans to extend his various franchises have crashed and burned. But maybe there’s still hope with Twilight of the Gods? The ultra-violent animated series features mythological figures engaged in bloody battles…against vengeful mortals!
Created by Zack Snyder, Eric Carrasco, and Jay Oliva with music composed by Hans Zimmer, Twilight of the Gods features lots of blood, sex, and heroic acts on the battlefield. Basically, all things that Snyder loves. Snyder directed the first and last episodes of the series.
Sylvia Hoeks, Stuart Martin, Rahul Kohli, Paterson Joseph, Jamie Clayton, Pilou Asbæk, Birgitte Hjort Sørensen, Kristofer Hivju, Thea Sofie Loch Næss, John Noble, and Peter Stormare lead the voice cast.
Twilight of the Gods hits Netflix on September 19th.
SYNOPSIS: Zack Snyder presents TWILIGHT OF THE GODS, an all-new daring and spectacular animated vision of Norse mythology. 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.
