The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance is a prequel to the movie The Dark Crystal which came out in 1982. Further, it is considered a classic and follows the plot of an evil character who is set to take over the world if the magic crystal is not restored. The series will follow the back story to these events.
The production of Age of Resistance started back in 2017. The series directed by Louis Leterrier who is a renowned French film director. He is known for his work in The Incredible Hulk, The Transporter and Now You See Me. Thus, his calibre has already been established in Hollywood and there are no doubts that he was selected to bring all the classic characters back to life.
Last years SDCC concluded that the movie will feature puppets and not CGI and actors will be cast for the voice-overs. The latest trailer took fans by surprise as many of them were not expecting the trailer. Take a look,
