His Dark Materials Season 2 Trailer: Weeks Ahead
Though thefirst episodeof the second season ofHis Dark Materialswas a little shaky, HBO’s teaser for the rest of the season gives us a good taste of thenew and improved season 2. Our two protagonists Lyra (Dafne Keen) and Will (Amir Wilson) are finally united and exploring our Oxford, but facing up against a dangerous foe,Ariyon Bakare’s Lord Boreal, who is forming an ominous alliance with Mrs. Coulter (the tremendousRuth Wilson). And there’s the major subplot of the oppressive Magisterium going to war with the witches, lots of explosions, etc. But then we have the fun stuff:Lin-Manuel Mirandaand Andrew Scott on a quest for a mythical weapon in a hot air balloon.
It’s a good tease for the second season ofHis Dark Materials, which I wrote in myreview"is a veritable feast of breathtaking visuals and thrilling adventure," and a vast improvement over the tonally uneven season 1. The show has finally become confident in its own skin as a religious fantasy epic, and its stronger second season should win over any fans that were uncertain after its first season.
