The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, the upcoming Netflix series set long before the events of Jim Henson and Frank Oz’s 1982 The Dark Crystal movie, not only looks like a visually stunning adventure, but it also has one heck of a cast. It was previously announced that the likes of Taron Egerton, Anya Taylor-Joy, Nathalie Emmanuel, Natalie Dormer, Eddie Izzard, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Alicia Vikander, and Mark Strong will voice various Gelfings, with Harvey Fierstein, Mark Hamill, Keegan-Michael Key, and Andy Samberg, among others, as the Skeksis and Mystics, but on Wednesday, Netflix revealed even more famous people will speak for the elfs and weird bird-reptile things.
There’s Lena Headey as Maudra Fara, Benedict Wong as the General, Awkwafina as the Collector, Sigourney Weaver as the Myth-Speaker, Hannah John-Kamen as Naia, and Dave Goelz as Baffi, a Fizzgig. Okay, but who the heck are Maudra Fara, the General, etc.? You’ll have to wait until August 30, when Age of Resistance premieres, to find out (or click here for photos). Here’s the rest of the puppet-y crew, with the characters the cast is voicing.
