As the remains of a blazing asteroid travels across the universe, six adventures are uncovered which herald danger at every turn. Starring (Scott Adkins, The Bourne Ultimatum, Zero Dark Thirty), Michael Jai White (The Dark Knight), Michelle Lee (Pacific Rim, The Pirates of the Caribbean series) and John Rhys-Davies (The Lord of the Rings trilogy), The Metal Hurlant heroes are back.

With a planet devastated by war between human and alien races, an icy hush spreads as ashes settle across the charred landscape. Meanwhile, a loyal warrior seeks an elixir to cure his beloved princess from a terrible disease while, across the galaxy, two brothers battle for control of an almighty kingdom, each drawing upon their powerful and supernatural skills to claim victory.

In the follow up to Metal Hurlant Chronicles and based on the popular comic book franchise comes an action-packed, sci-fi adventure exploding with peril, destruction and the bravery of a select few in a vast universe.

We like it because:

Metal Hurlant: Resurgence continues to be one of television’s most unique series, jumping between worlds, characters and genres. The innovative concept delivers something completely different with each episode, making it an unpredictable and exciting experience.

It also features a varied cast of actors, from up-and-coming talent such as Scott Adkins (Zero Dark Thirty) and Dan Cade (The Family), to established genre stars, including Michael Biehn (Aliens) and John Rhys-Davies (Lord of the Rings).

With excellent special effects work and big action, Metal Hurlant: Resurgence is a must see for science-fiction and fantasy fans – a gripping adventure that spans time and space!
