‘The Dark Crystal’ Comic-Con preview goes behind the scenes
Besides The Witcher, Netflix also highlighted its upcoming The Dark Crystal prequel series at Comic-Con. Instead of another trailer, the video posted goes behind the scenes, talking to engineers and others at Jim Henson Company who have continued the tradition more than thirty years later for this ten episode run. According to director Louis Leterrier, hopefully the audience will “forget you’re watching puppets.”
Stars like Mark Hamill and Taron Egerton showed up for the SDCC panel, where producer Lisa Henson said “This is the proudest thing that I’ve done since my siblings and myself started running the company.” The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance will premiere on Netflix August 30th.
