Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Trollhunters, a Guillermo del Toro project that's actually happening, is a long in-development animated series that will be brought to us later this year via Netflix and DreamWorks Animation. A first look image has been released, of a young protagonist bearing a sword next to a giant monster.

They seem to be friends, which makes the title very intriguing. Are they the Trollhunters? Are they fighting the Trollhunters? Is anybody hunting trolls at all? We'll just have to wait and see, but you can check out the image below!

Originally intended as a feature film, then released as an illustrated novel by del Toro and Daniel Kraus in 2015, the series takes place in:

a new, fantastical world wrapped around the residents of the fictional suburb of Arcadia who make a startling discovery that the world beneath their hometown is as vast and mind-blowing as anything on the surface.”

There's no official release date yet, but you'll read it here as soon as it's announced!
