'KRYPTON' SF SERIES
MAGNIFICENT FIRST TRAILER!
Not much to report today, people, but what we do have is truly magnificent - amazing first teaser for SyFy's upcoming new sf series KRYPTON about the early years of Superman's grandfather! The visuals really look stunning and expensive in the lavish trailer you can check out below. It comes from Stargate and Sleepy Hollow's Damian Kindler and David S. Goyer!
THE STORY OF KRYPTON
is set two generations before the destruction of the legendary Man of Steel’s home planet following Superman’s grandfather Seg-El, whose House of El was ostracised and shamed, as he fights to redeem his family’s honour and save his beloved world from chaos.

SUPERMAN'S GRANDFATHER
The lead role has been given to Cameron Cuffe who plays Seg-El, destined to be the ancestor of Jor-El (future father of Superman) and
Kal-El (the future Superman), he is the scion of the once prosperous
El family and is blessed with an intuitive brilliance for all things
technical. He now is living in Krypton’s lowest caste after his family
was stripped of its rank. Ian McElhinney will play Val-El, grandfather of Seg-El, a rogue genius who believes that space exploration is
a basic form of self defence, and he has tried, without success, to
warn the Kryptonian elite about the arrival of an ancient threat. Elliot Cowan
is Daron Vex, the Chief Magistrate of Kandor whose real business is
defending Krypton’s established oligarchy against heretics and
dissidents. Ann Ogbomo will be Primus Alura Zod, Lyta Zod’s (female lead played by Georgina Campbell) mother and a leader of Krypton’s military guild, an extremely tough training officer. Rasmus Hardiker will play Kem, a brilliant engineer as well as Seg-El’s best friend and partner in an underground tech repair business. Wallis Day will play Nyssa Vex, a junior magistrate and the daughter of Daron Vex. Aaron Pierre is Dev-Em, a cadet under the command of Primus Alura Zod.
Sounds like it could have potential!
ReplyDeleteit looks really epic, but knowing it's SyFy.... :( We shall give it a chance at least, there's Elliot Cowan in it, who is a friend of Hollywood Spy :)
DeleteSee... now I'm curious if they did a good job on this one.
ReplyDeletewe shall give them benefit of a doubt
DeleteI haven't been super impressed with SciFi's more recent series, but here's hoping. It could be good, right?
ReplyDeleteYes, they haven't had any good series recently except DARK MATTER after they killed DOMINION
DeleteLooks good. I hope it works out.
ReplyDeletefingers crossed it is as epic as the trailer promises
DeleteEh... more super hero crap on the horizon I see. Should exit fans though.
ReplyDeleteI forgot to say that it was shot here in Serbia last Autumn :)
Delete*excite*
ReplyDeleteand while shooting the series here, Elliot Cowan was excited about our chocolate bananas as much as your Ally :)
DeleteTo exit fans... Would that be a Freudian slip?
Deleteindeed
DeleteI can see where Serbians would actually be looking forward to it then. It always does give a film more appeal when we have a more personal connection with it, like being shot in our hometown. We've only had one film shot here locally (that I am aware of) and people still talk about it 25 or so years later.
DeleteOh yes, those chocolate bananas are probably a real draw for all of the tourists that pass through. I am sure he took some home to share with friends and family too.
DeleteSadly, Serbs don't even know it was shot here :) we're never informed about such things, because most people here don't really care about Hollywood. Sometimes the crews come and go fully unnoticed. Like a Hollywood star could be sitting in your coffee house and you wouldn't even know.
DeleteOhhh darn. I can't view the trailer.
ReplyDeleteit has been taken down everywhere around the net, you should've been quicker :)
DeleteThat's okay :-)
Deleteit was a bootlegged version, you see
