We mere mortals will be graced with a gift forged in the heavens this September: mythology, animation, and creator and executive producer Zack Snyder (Rebel Moon). Twilight of the Gods, coming from The Stone Quarry and Xilam animation studios, brings Snyder’s daring and spectacular vision of ancient Norse mythology to life.

In a mythical world of great battles, great deeds, and great despair, Leif (Stuart Martin), a mortal king, is saved on the battlefield by Sigrid (Sylvia Hoeks), an iron-willed warrior with whom he falls in love. On their wedding night, Sigrid and Leif survive a wrath of terror from Thor (Pilou Asbæk), which sets them — and a crew of crusaders — on a merciless mission for vengeance, against all odds. This heroic story of love, loss, and revenge, is a journey to hell and beyond … across fantastical lands, battlefields fierce and bloody, and wars waged against deities and demons.

Snyder’s Twilight of the Gods promises to immerse viewers in a vibrant, animated retelling of Norse legends. The series melds the grandiosity of mythology with the visceral intensity Snyder is renowned for, bringing to life a tale where mortal bravery clashes with divine fury.

The series is animated by Xilam, a studio known for its high-quality and innovative animation work, and produced by Snyder's The Stone Quarry, ensuring that the visual storytelling will match the epic scale of the narrative.

As September approaches, fans of mythology and animation alike can look forward to a powerful new saga that explores the depths of human and divine emotions. Twilight of the Gods is set to be a breathtaking addition to Snyder’s body of work, promising a spectacle that transcends the mortal realm and ventures into the epic struggles of the Norse pantheon.
