Magic: The Gathering is making its way to Netflix.
The famous card game Magic: The Gathering, loved by many for over 30 years, will soon be an animated series on Netflix. This new show is currently in production, with Terry Matalas at the helm as both showrunner and executive producer. Known for his work on Star Trek: Picard and 12 Monkeys, Matalas is collaborating with Hasbro Entertainment and Wizards of the Coast. Patrick Osborne, an Oscar winner for Feast, is the supervising director and executive producer.
“It has been an absolute dream collaboration with Netflix, Hasbro Entertainment, Wizards of the Coast, and the brilliant Patrick Osborne to bring the many worlds of Magic: The Gathering to streaming,” Matalas tells Tudum. “Those new to this sprawling saga will learn what millions of fans who play every day already know. Magic is the ultimate storytelling sandbox, brimming with iconic, complex characters, extraordinary mind-bending powers, and portals to every genre imaginable. It is also a powerful reminder that no matter what culture, country, or plane of existence you come from, we can all unite and become heroes together.”
