HBO have released a teaser trailer for their upcoming adaptation of Philip Pullman’s iconic book series, His Dark Materials and there’s no denying it’s a lavish affair.
Starring Logan’s Dafne Keen as Lyra along with stars James McAvoy, Ruth Wilson and Lin-Manuel Miranda, this co-production with the BBC has it all and certainly looks like it’s going to deliver in spades.
Adapting Philip Pullman’s award-winning trilogy of the same name, which is considered a modern masterpiece of imaginative fiction, the first season follows Lyra, a seemingly ordinary but brave young woman from another world. Her search for a kidnapped friend uncovers a sinister plot involving stolen children, and becomes a quest to understand a mysterious phenomenon called Dust. As she journeys through the worlds, including our own, Lyra meets Will, a determined and courageous boy. Together, they encounter extraordinary beings and dangerous secrets, with the fate of both the living — and the dead — in their hands
