A brand supernatural animated-action series will be heading our way next month from Adult Swim and five-time Emmy® Award-winning Genndy Tartakovsky (Dexter’s Laboratory, Samurai Jack): Unicorn: Warriors Eternal follows a team of heroes who reawaken to fight an ominous force throughout eternity.
Watch the new trailer here…
In Unicorn: Warriors Eternal an evil force is looming across the dark, thick-aired streets of industrial revolution London when a group of heroes dubbed Unicorn are accidentally reawakened in the bodies of teenagers instead of adult hosts they have embodied in the past. Melinda, a powerful sorceress, Seng, a cosmic monk, and Edred, a warrior elf. With distorted memories and their magical abilities weakened and fragmented, the trio must work together with help from their steam-powered robot, Copernicus, to unravel the mysteries of their pasts and present that will reveal their path to defeating a timeless threat.
“This show is truly a wonder,” said Michael Ouweleen, president, Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, Boomerang and Discovery Kids. “It shows that in the hands of a creative visionary and an insanely talented team, there’s no limit to the kinds of stories animation can tell. By programming this during peak hours and re-airing across multiple dayparts, we are ensuring that all generations of animation fans can see this event-level series.”
Created and directed by Genndy Tartakovsky, Unicorn: Warriors Eternal includes the voice talents of Hazel Doupe (You Are Not My Mother) as Melinda, Tom Milligan (Bridgerton) as Edred, and Demari Hunte as Seng.
“This show was created in my early days at Cartoon Network Studios more than 20 years ago,” explained Genndy Tartakovsky. “All the projects we worked on—Dexter’s Laboratory, Samurai Jack, and Sym-Bionic Titan— were like a training ground getting us ready for this series.
“It took all of that time to finally be able to tackle a show like Unicorn: Warriors Eternal.”
The first two episodes of Unicorn: Warriors Eternal will premiere on Friday 5 May on All 4 in the UK and Ireland.
