Says Netflix: The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance will combine the art of puppetry perfected by The Jim Henson Company, with Louis’ vision, powerful storytelling and a mix of cutting-edge digital imagery and visual effects.
Netflix announced that shooting will commence this fall on The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, featuring “an ensemble of fantastical, state-of-the-art creatures created by Jim Henson’s Creature Shop and Brian Froud, the original feature’s conceptual designer.”
Directed and produced by Louis Leterrier, and taking place many years before the 1982 film, the series also released a first synopsis: The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance returns to the world of Thra with an all new adventure.
