The movie, which Tartakovsky fell on Instagram, shows a solitary warrior clash with an imposing medieval knight of 20 feet. It is pure Tartakovsky energy that is kinetic, stylized and full of visual power.
He revealed that the test coil was actually created over six years ago to show how an animated action film oriented to adults might appear. Although he earned creative approval, the project has never been illuminated in Sony Animation, where he was destined to direct two original films.
Tartakovsky told Polygon:
“They go alone:” Where’s the audience? “Or” Who is the public?
His frustration has grown only like other animated successes target of adults like Kpop demons hunters AND Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle He stormed the box office.
“How long have I been sitting there and I will come out all these projects? Why is mine original, it is not realized. So I thought of putting it out.”

“They weren’t screaming against me. They were like ‘Ok, I guess if you want to do this, go ahead.’ And now the reaction is fantastic. “

If the passion of his fans is an indication, it is hoped that Tartakovsky The black knight it could actually be made.
