As the very mainstream saying goes: Keep your friends close, but your daemons closer. Unless your daemon is a really spooky animal, then we’re sorry. His Dark Materials, perhaps our answer on how to fill the impending Game of Thrones void on HBO, debuted its first trailer this morning, and we got the tiniest of tidbits of what to expect with this already-renewed drama: Lin-Manuel Miranda looks pissed, Ruth Wilson is doing some magic while wearing nice coats, and James McAvoy is exuding some foxy energy! So, nothing much, but at least we know Philip Pullman’s sci-fi novels will be faithfully adapted for our amusement. It’ll premiere on HBO later this year.
