As we approach the weekend, it's the perfect time to dive into Netflix's latest animated series, which is based on the popular video game franchise. That's right, Devil May Cry is now available for streaming, bringing the stylish action of the game to life in a new animated format.
The series boasts an impressive voice cast and is animated by Studio Mir, with veteran showrunner Adi Shankar leading the project. This new series is set in its own universe and takes place before the events of the original games, offering a fresh look at a younger Dante, the iconic devil hunter, before he became the legend we know and love.
The Devil May Cry franchise is experiencing a renaissance, with the latest installment, DMC:5, still making waves, and the release of Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat in the West by Tencent a few years ago. The arrival of this animated series on Netflix reignites interest in the franchise, sparking curiosity about what the future might hold for this beloved series.
This party's getting crazy! Adi Shankar's involvement in the project has stirred mixed feelings among fans. Known for his role in bringing Dredd to the big screen, Shankar's unique style and Americanized approach to Devil May Cry have sparked some debate. However, his dedication to the projects he takes on is undeniable.
