Game Of Thrones’ Natalie Emmanuel and Marvel star Hannah John-Kamen were among the stars out in force to celebrate the premiere of new Netflix show The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance.
Wearing a purple gown with a plunging neckline, British actress Nathalie, 30, posed with her co-star along with Jason Isaacs and Keegan-Michael Key, at the event at the Museum of the Moving Image Tuesday in Queens, New York City.
Taron Edgerton and Split’s Anya Taylor-Joy also star in the new series along with Awkwafina, Helena Bonham Carter, Lena Headey and Andy Samberg among the supporting stars featured in the massive ensemble cast.
The highly-anticipated prequel series to the beloved 1982 Jim Henson film The Dark Crystal, launches on 30 August 2019 on the streaming site.
Returning to the world of Thra with an all-new adventure, the show will follow three Gelfling who discover the horrifying secret behind the Skeksis’ power.
Deet (Emmanuel), Rian (Egerton), and Brea (Taylor-Joy) set out on an epic journey to ignite the fires of rebellion and save their world.
The first trailer provided a glimpse into the ensemble voice cast which also includes Caitriona Balfe, Helena Bonham Carter, Natalie Dormer, Eddie Izzard, Mark Strong, Alicia Vikander, Mark Hamill, and more.
That’s an impressive cast.
The synopsis from Netflix reads: ‘Based on The Dark Crystal, Jim Henson’s groundbreaking 1982 feature film, The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance tells a new story, set many years before the events of the movie, and realised using classic puppetry with cutting edge visual effects.
‘The world of Thra is dying. The Crystal of Truth is at the heart of Thra, a source of untold power. But it is damaged, corrupted by the evil Skeksis, and a sickness spreads across the land.
‘When three Gelfling uncover the horrific truth behind the power of the Skeksis, an adventure unfolds as the fires of rebellion are lit and an epic battle for the planet begins.’
The Dark Crystal is released on Netflix on August 30.
