Fans also got a first look at the official teaser trailer, poster, and never-before-seen stills from Season 2, currently in production.
About the Film: Iyanu: The Age of Wonders
Set 500 years before the rise of Iyanu, The Age of Wonders transports viewers to Yorubaland at the height of its magical civilization. When Meje — the embodiment of the seven deadly sins — emerges, young warriors Dara and Ishe must stop the coming Age of Darkness. Their only hope lies with the Divine Ones, legendary beings who once walked the earth and upheld the balance between light and shadow.
The film was co-written by Brandon Easton (series story editor) and Roye Okupe, who also directed and serves as the franchise’s creator and showrunner.
