Fanged, top-hatted, be-horned and flamboyant, Jason Momoa’s character in Slumberland appears to be a sort of mutant hybrid of the Faun from Pan’s Labyrinth, Willy Wonka, and Momoa’s own turn in that Ozzy video. Hell, looks fun though. The second trailer for Netflix’s upcoming fantasy adventure has just arrived, so judge the colourful mayhem for yourself.
The story is this… After her father Peter (Kyle Chandler) is unexpectedly lost at sea, young Nemo's (newcomer Marlow Barkley) idyllic Pacific Northwest existence is completely upended when she is sent to live in the city with her well-meaning but deeply awkward uncle Phillip (Chris O'Dowd).
Her new school and new routine are challenging by day but at night, a secret map to the fantastical world of Slumberland connects Nemo to Flip (Momoa), a rough-around-the-edges but lovable outlaw who quickly becomes her partner and guide. She and Flip soon find themselves on an incredible journey traversing dreams and fleeing nightmares, where Nemo begins to hope that she will be reunited with her father once again…
Directed by Francis Lawrence, previously behind The Hunger Games: Catching Fire and Mockingjay Part 1 and Part 2, Slumberland will be on Netflix from 18 November.
