Wait this will be the same as the movie ? I knew that the first movie was canon as said by toryama , but I thought that the series would actually continue after that and the second movie .

What a scene.Indeed Salvo, Vorenus and Pullo will go through so much tragedy, brace yourself.
A new fantasy series out early next year, based on teen fantasy book series, and its done by MTV, so you would figure not worth taking a look at, but based on this trailer and people involved (Crixus, and now Gimli is playing elf king
), ambitious visual project to say the least.

Just saw that , it's mtv so I don't expect anything more than their usual crap . A shame imho , it has great production values . I don't know the source material , but cosidering that it's based on young adult novels it's a reason more to not expect much . There are a lot of great fantasy books that deserve this treatment more than this series .
Dont see it as MTV (they done decent job with teen wolf), and more of how high level production they are putting into this, looks visually amazing. But yeah will be teen driven story since thats the source material, and probably why MTV chose it. But it looks promising based on that trailer, fantasy world looks interesting. And as said Gimli and Crixus

So comic con keeps on delivering the news, another new series, based on a what if Phillip K Dick novel I havent read, intriguing:
Imagine if the Allied powers lost World War II, and Americans lived under totalitarian regimes, the eastern states ruled by Nazi Germany and the western states ruled by an Axis-powered Japan.
That’s the premise behind The Man in the High Castle, the Amazon series coming this fall from Ridley Scott (Blade Runner) and Frank Spotnitz (X Files). Based on the Hugo Award-winning Philip K. Dick novel from 1962, the series raises big questions – including a few controversial ones from the Comic-Con audience. Below, six reasons why the series – and the panel – are making waves:
An alternate pledge of allegiance
The panel marked the debut of the trailer for the series, which evokes a combination of goose bumps and gravitas as it reimagines our pledge of allegiance in an alternate version of history, “with liberty and justice for none.”
The question of what is real
Alexa Davalos, who plays the lead, Juliana Crain, brought up author Philip K. Dick’s central question from the novel, which asks how much of reality is in our heads, how much is our perception, and how much actually exists. “That’s the world we’re living in in this series,” said Davalos, “always questioning what is real.”
The love triangle
The lead in the series, Juliana Crain (Alexa Davalos), is torn between her boyfriend back home (Frank Frink, played by Rupert Evans) and a mysterious man she meets in the neutral zone in the middle states (Joe Blake, played by Luke Kleintank). The two men represent different ideologies, shifting as the series unfolds. But they also represent the two different paths she could take in life.
Cary Hiroyuki-Tagawa
Born in Tokyo and raised on U.S. Army bases in the deep South, the actor known for playing bad guys (Mortal Kombat, Revenge) has spent his life reconciling the worlds of east and west. In The Man in the High Castle, he finally gets to play a good guy – and embody his own personal struggle in the character he plays, Nobusuki Tagomi, a trade missionary who might just be a savior.
Rufus Sewell
Another perennial bad guy, Sewell (Killing Jesus) pays the penultimate antagonist in the series: a Nazi who is celebrated as an American Hero. Even more challenging is that his character reveals a human side. When an audience member asked if playing certain roles challenged the actors’ moral boundaries, Sewell stepped up to explain his point of view: “If there’s anything that we need to learn, it’s that human beings do these evil things, not Germans. We need to understand it.”
What’s at stake
“We as Americans are not used to losing, and seeing our values challenged like this makes us think,” said Spotnitz. “You watch this and realize what’s at stake,” he added. “It makes us think about our own history and the things we take for granted, and it makes us question what it means to be American. It’s an idea that requires replenishing with each generation.”
