AfterBlood of Zeusdecided to adapt Greek Mythology with a completely new twist, its take on Norse Mythology seems like it’s treading familiar ground, perhaps taking inspiration from a few popular video games, or so the plot of the show suggests.
Twilight of the Godsis the latest offering by Zack Snyder, following a young woman on a quest for revenge against the gods, specifically, Thor. The plot of the show might be reminiscent of the originalGod of War, which similarly focused on one mortal’s roaring rampage of revenge on the gods. However, there seems to be a little more to the story that might be becoming a familiar trope for Zack Snyder’s works.
Twilight of the Godsmight recycle a plot used inRebel Moon
From what can be pieced together from the trailer of the show, it seems that the plot might have more in common withZack Snyder‘s other Netflix IP, Rebel Moon. The protagonist of the show, Sigrid, assembles a slew of warriors to fight the gods, leading a rebellion against their tyranny.
Fans are convinced that the show might be taking a few cues from theGod of Warfranchise, which also began dabbling in Norse Mythology with a plotline in its initial games. The animation style that the story bosts also has hints of the works of Genndy Tartakovsky, who has delivered such critically acclaimed series asPrimalandSamurai Jack.
Twilight of the Godsis a series that wants to put a new spin on Norse Mythology, albeit with a tried and tested plot. On paper, the series seems to be a simple action-adventure fantasy show, albeit aimed at adults.
Zack Snyder and his team had free reign onTwilight of the Gods
Zack Snyder’s producing partner Deborah Snyder revealed in an interview withThe Hollywood Reporterthat while Netflix had a few notes on the initial pitch, they were keen on Snyder being in the driver’s seat for this one. He said:
We pitched them an outline; they had a few notes but they let us have free rein. They had no guardrails, no limitations.
The producer also revealed that they particularly looked into animation for how freeing it can be, given that it would allow the production to express itself more artistically, rather than in a live-action setting, where the creators might find themselves hindered and limited.
Twilight of the Godshits Netflix on August 21, 2025.
