The first trailer for Netflix’s next original animated project is out Blue-eyed samurai, and it looks really damn good! The series centers on an Edo-period samurai in Japan seeking revenge, and I’m impressed with what I see in this amazing trailer. I’m excited to watch it!
The show is described as a “provocative and visually stunning film series” that “immerses the viewer in a world of vivid adult animation with a live-action twist. Set in Edo period Japan, Blue Eye Samurai follows Mizu (voiced by Maya Erskine), a mixed-race sword master living a life in disguise seeking liberation from vengeance.
The series was created by the writer Michele Verdewho has previously worked on high-profile projects like Logan and Blade Runner 2049, so we know the script and story will be solid.
Blue-eyed samurai will feature an impressive voice cast that includes Giorgio Takei, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, Masi Oka, Randall Park, Darren BarnettAND Brenda Song.
When the project was first announced, the creators Michele Verde AND Amber Noizumi shared in a statement, “Our story is an extraordinary action adventure that takes place 400 years ago, but the themes of Blue Eye Samurai are timely and the inspiration is deeply personal. We are grateful for Netflix’s passion for this story and for their bold vision of a sophisticated animated drama.”
The producers have also chosen the director of Mulan Jane Wu to help develop the series. Blue Eye Samurai releases November 3rd.
