‘Trollhunters’ Universe Will Expand Into The Trilogy Series ‘Tales of Arcadia’

By Amid Amidi | 11/07/2017 2:03 am | 8

The Trollhunters saga isn’t ending anytime soon.

On Monday night at a preview screening for Dreamworks Animation/Netflix’s Trollhunters Part 2, creator and executive producer Guillermo del Toro revealed that the world of the series will expand to become a trilogy of series called Tales of Arcadia.

According to a Netflix press release, two additional series called 3 Below and Wizards will complete the epic tale:

On the surface, Arcadia appears to be a slice of timeless Americana, but it is no ordinary town. It lies at the center of magical and mystical lines that will make it a nexus for many battles among otherworldly creatures including trolls, aliens and wizards. Dreamworks Trollhunters, the first installment in the Tales of Arcadia trilogy, will be followed by two additional series 3 Below in 2018 and a final chapter Wizards set to debut in 2019.

Following Trollhunters, DreamWorks 3 Below will focus on two royal teenage aliens and their bodyguard who flee a surprise takeover of their home planet by an evil dictator and crash land in Arcadia. Now on the run from intergalactic bounty hunters, they struggle to blend in and adapt to the bizarre world of high school all the while attempting to repair their ship so they can return and defend their home planet.

DreamWorks Wizards brings together the three disparate worlds of trolls, aliens and wizards who have found themselves drawn to Arcadia. The final chapter of the Tales of Arcadia culminates in an apocalyptic battle for the control of magic that will ultimately determine the fate of these supernatural worlds that have now converged.

Netflix released a teaser on Monday signalling the Arcadia universe expansion:

Trollhunters has been a hit with critics and fans alike. The project won six honors at the most recent Daytime Creative Arts Emmy Awards, more than any other individual program this year.

Del Toro executive produces Trollhunters along with Marc Guggenheim (Arrow, Legends of Tomorrow), Rodrigo Blaas (Alma), Chad Hammes (Dragons: Race to the Edge), and Christina Steinberg (Rise of the Guardians). Dan Hageman and Kevin Hageman (The Lego Movie, Ninjago) serve as co-executive producers.

Part 3 of Trollhunters dropped on Netflix on May 25, 2018 and I binged a bit.

When this series first started I was like OK let's watch. I was maybe 2 or 3 episodes in and was disappointed as it was coming across as standard kid stuff, kid gets powers, kid gets mentored, kid fights the monster of the week, and kid needs to hide his identity and try to get through day to day in high school. His mom is a single parent and he has a dorky sidekick/best friend.

The voice cast has some very established actors "The ensemble roster runs the gamut, including Frasier alum Kelsey Grammer, frequent del Toro collaborator Ron Perlman, and Transparent standout Amy Landecker." The late Anton Yelchin plays the lead Jim Lake.

I put off watching the show for a couple of months and started watching again and around episode 5-7 something clicked and I thought/knew there was something more to the show and very slowly bit by bit this great community of trolls is uncovered and their history and the show became a must see. I liked how the supporting characters were included and also grew along side the main character of Jim Lake. In many "so called kids films" the adults are portrayed as clueless and that is not fair, and this is one of the few shows where the adults are incorporated eventually and help their kids.
