In upcoming “The Dark Crystal” prequel series “Age of Resistance,” it’s time for the Gelfling to fight back, and Shazad Latif will be part of the cause. At a red carpet event in Hollywood on Sunday, the actor revealed details about the Gelfling character he voices in the new Netflix series. “My character plays the flute and he’s really sweet and in touch with nature,” he said. “It’s a very ethereal character so I just sort of channeled that, walked in the woods a lot.”
In the original Jim Henson movie from the ‘80s, two gelflings from the world of Thra set out to fulfill a prophecy to get rid of the evil overlords, the Skeksis. Here’s Netflix’s description of the prequel:
“‘The Age of Resistance’ tells a new epic story, set many years before the events of the movie, and realized using classic puppetry with cutting edge visual effects.
