Some character introductions…

  • Inej Ghafa, The Wraith. Beware of knives.
  • General Kirigan, Leader of the Grisha. Shadow Summoner.
  • Alina Starkov, A mapmaker, but perhaps much more.

  • Kaz Brekker, Leader of the Crows. Always scheming.
  • Jesper Fahey, Sharpshooter. 100% charming, 100% of the time.
  • Mal Oretsev, Tracker and rising star in the First Army.

If you’re a Hunger Games or His Dark Materials fan, this looks perfect for you. Secret powers, danger around every corner, and a world in peril to save. The cast has a lot of fresh new faces – it’s led by Jessie Mei Li as Aline and includes Freddy Carter, Archie Renaux, Amita Suman, and Kit Young. Eric Heisserer (Bird BoxArrival) is the showrunner.

Shadow & Bone drops on Netflix on April 23rd.
