The stage is set for a war between worlds in His Dark Materials S3 teaser
The final rebellion begins in season 3 of His Dark Materials.
Those (like me) who have been eagerly awaiting the third and final installment of HBO's His Dark Materials will appreciate the release of a season 3 teaser giving us our first glimpse of what's in store. Based on the bestselling trilogy by Philip Pullman, S3 will see our heroine, Lyra (Dafne Keen), finally come to terms with her destiny, even as her father, Lord Asriel (James McAvoy), declares war on the Authority.
(Spoilers for the first two seasons below.)
As we've written previously, the three books in Pullman's series are The Golden Compass (published as Northern Lights in the UK), The Subtle Knife, and The Amber Spyglass. They follow the adventures of a 12-year-old girl named Lyra, who lives in a fictional version of Oxford, England, circa the Victorian era. Everyone has a companion daemon in the form of an animal-part of their spirit that resides outside the body-and Lyra's is named Pantalaimon. Lyra uncovers a sinister plot that sends her on a journey to find her father in hopes of foiling said plot. That journey takes her to different dimensions (the fictional world is a multiverse) and ultimately to her own coming of age.
