As seen in the new red band trailer, “Twilight of the Gods” is an animated series about Norse mythology. Folks like Loki, Thor, and Odin (not the Marvel versions) are shown in the clip, as is a lot of bloody gore and sex—things that are fairly commonplace in Snyder’s recent director’s cuts of “Rebel Moon.” The man loves sex and violence, there’s no two ways around it.
The animated series stars Sylvia Hoeks, Stuart Martin, Rahul Kohli, Paterson Joseph, Jamie Clayton, Pilou Asbæk, Birgitte Hjort Sørensen, Kristofer Hivju, Thea Sofie Loch Næss, John Noble, and Peter Stormare. Zack Snyder directs the first and last episodes, while other episodes are directed by Jay Oliva, Eric Carrasco, Andrew Tamandl, Tim Divar, and David Hartman.

“Twilight of the Gods” arrives on Netflix on September 19. You can watch the teaser below.
Here’s the synopsis:
Zack Snyder presents TWILIGHT OF THE GODS, an all-new daring and spectacular animated vision of Norse mythology. In a mythical world of great battles, great deeds and great despair, LEIF, a mortal King, is saved on the battlefield by SIGRID, an iron-willed warrior with whom he falls in love. On their wedding night, SIGRID and LEIF survive a wrath of terror from THOR, which sets them – and a crew of crusaders – on an against all odds and merciless mission for vengeance. This heroic story of love, loss and revenge, is a journey to Hell and beyond… across fantastical lands, battlefields fierce and bloody, and wars waged against Gods and demons.
