Guillermo del Toro Bringing ‘DreamWorks Tales of Arcadia: 3Below’ to NYCC

Oscar-winning director to screen first look at highly-anticipated second chapter of ‘Tales of Arcadia’ trilogy.

GLENDALE, CA – DreamWorks Animation Television has added a panel for OSCAR winner Guillermo del Toro’s highly-anticipated Netflix original series DreamWorks Tales of Arcadia: 3Below to the studio’s exciting New York Comic Con 2018 line up.

Creator and executive producer del Toro, alongside series star Diego Luna, and fellow executive producers Rodrigo Blaas, Marc Guggenheim and Chad Hammes, are set to provide a first look inside the upcoming Netflix original series, the second chapter in the DreamWorks Tales of Arcadia trilogy.  Fans of the 7-time Emmy-winning Trollhunters can expect to find several familiar faces in 3Below when two royal teenage aliens, Krel (Luna) and Aja (Tatiana Maslany), and their bodyguard flee a surprise takeover of their home planet by an evil dictator and crash land in Arcadia.

On the surface, Arcadia appears to be a slice of timeless Americana, but it is no ordinary town.  It lies at the center of magical and mystical lines that will make it a nexus for many battles among otherworldly creatures including trolls, aliens and wizards.  3Below is set to debut later this year. The final trilogy chapter, Wizards, is set to debut in 2019.
