While Zack Snyder’s time seems to be very much taken up with Rebel Moon and the upcoming extended cuts of those, he has taken a brief time out to share our first look at his upcoming Netflix animated series, Twilight of the Gods.
The image, above, reminds me of the work of Cartoon Saloon, especially Book of Kells.
Anyway, I digress.
Based on Norse mythology, Snyder shared the image on X/Twitter (below), writing: “We fear no Gods! Coming to Netflix this fall, my new animated series TWILIGHT OF THE GODS.”
Speaking last year about the series, Snyder said: “There’s a king and his queen in a small Viking village, and they want to get married.
“An event happens to them at their wedding that causes Sigrid, who is the bride-to-be, who is the child of giants, to go on a crazy mission of revenge.
“She enlists a cast of characters – a seer, a dwarf – and they come together to form a band that has this one mission to find a god and fight him. Sigrid is this beautiful, very Scandinavian kind of cold but passionate character that I’ve really enjoyed working through and with because she’s just so cool.”
I’m guessing the lady in the image is Sigrid and, em, isn’t this the plot of Rebel Moon? Anyway…
I’m guessing that this stage the Army of the Dead animated show is dead in the water? Haven’t heard anything about it since, well, the movie came out.
In Twilight of the Gods Sylvia Hoeks voices Sigrid, Stuart Martin voices Leif, Pilou Asbæk voices Thor, John Noble voices Odin, Paterson Joseph voices Loki, Rahul Kohli voices Egill, Jamie Clayton voices The Seid-Kona, Kristopher Hivju voices Andvari, Peter Stormare voices Ulfr, Jamie Chung voices Hel, Lauren Cohan voices Inge, and Corey Stoll voices Hrafnkel.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
