As we head into a quieter weekend, it's the perfect time to highlight that Netflix has just released its latest animated series based on a popular video game: Devil May Cry. The series is now available for streaming, bringing the stylish action of the iconic devil hunter Dante to your screens.
With an impressive voice cast and Studio Mir handling the animation, the series is under the guidance of veteran showrunner Adi Shankar. This collaboration has already sparked significant interest. Set in its own universe and timeline, the series delves into the life of a younger Dante, offering fans a fresh perspective on the character before he became the legend we all know and love.
The Devil May Cry franchise is experiencing a renaissance. The recent release of DMC:5 still holds a strong presence in the gaming community, and the Western release of Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat by Tencent a few years ago added to its momentum. The animated series is reigniting interest and sparking curiosity about the future of this beloved franchise.
Adi Shankar's involvement brings a unique perspective to the series. Despite some fans expressing concerns about his more Americanized approach, his dedication to the project is undeniable. Shankar's track record, including his role in bringing Dredd to cinemas, showcases his commitment to quality productions.
