AFTER his iconic role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Robert Downey Jr. is now the producer of the TV adaptation of the DC Comics series Sweet Tooth.
The first trailer for his newest project Sweet Tooth just dropped, an adaptation of a DC comic which he is executive producing for Netflix with his wife Susan Downey and their production company Team Downey.
Watch the first trailer of upcoming post-apocalyptic adventure Sweet Tooth below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GrBw0pbF11s&t=2s
Based on the comics by Jeff Lemire, Sweet Tooth has been described as ‘Mad Max Meets Bambi’.
The eight-part series will tell the story of Gus (played by Legion star Christian Convery), a young boy who was born half human and half deer. He was raised in his sheltered home in the woods which he leaves to find that the world has been torn apart by a cataclysmic event.
10 years prior, the Great Grumble wreaked havoc and led to the emergence of hybrids just like Gus. It’s unsure whether the hybrids are the result or the cause of the spread of this virus, but these novel creatures are not safe in this new world.
Gus befriends a wandering loner named Jepperd (Game of Thrones‘ Nonso Anozie) who will turn into his protector as the two set out on an extraordinary adventure across what’s left of America in search of answers.
Also starring is Once Upon A Time‘s Dania Ramirez, who will be playing a pioneer character named Aimee who is trying to help rebuild a new society and give orphaned hybrids a safe home.
The Flash actor Neil Sandilands will play the show’s antagonist, General Steven Abbot, who leads a post-apocalyptic army with intimidation and quirkiness and uses the collapse of civilisation to reinvent himself and claim power.
Other cast members announced so far include Will Forte (Saturday Night Live), Adeel Akhtar (Les Misérables), and Christopher Convery (Succession), while James Brolin (Life in Pieces) serves as the narrator.
It premieres on Netflix this June 4. (ROHN ROMULO)
