Nearly four years on since comic book behemoth Mark Millar first announced a partnership with Netflix to bring his page creations to the big screen, the streaming service is readying its first Millarworld offering: Jupiter’s Legacy, a sprawling superhero epic with an almost limitless ambition. Like Watchmen, it spans multiple generations of crime-fighters – though here, actual superpowers abound, as a younger crew of heroes attempt to live up to the precedent set by their super-parents. Here’s an exclusive look at Josh Duhamel’s Sheldon Sampson, aka The Utopian, taking on Tyler Mane’s villainous Blackstar.
Netflix posted a 50-second teaser video on its official NX Twitter account on Monday, which showed a variety of comic book-style sketches being turned into high-definition TV stills.
