After-the-fact tweaks will, Spotnitz promised, further enrich the depiction of alternate period detail.

The panel also touched on how getting picked up to series is allowing them the chance to polish the pilot and bring it in line with the production values the series will ultimately have. 'Hand Of God': The Almighty Wasn’t The Inspiration For Amazon Series - Comic Con Series co-creator and lead writer Frank Spotnitz frequently was adamant that the show is aiming for a broad accuracy, promising at one point that readers of the book will be getting major spoilers about things they’ll see as the series unfold. After kicking off with the trailer (watch it above), the discussion then delved deeply into how the production is approaching the adaptation. With the series now under production, the cast and creators were on hand at Comic-Con for a panel discussion in advance of a theatrical screening of the first and second episodes.

Managing to kind of nail the novel’s weirdness and tone while also creating a plausible presentation of the dystopian setting, the pilot also connected with Amazon users who voted for it to be turned into a season in droves. Which is probably why Amazon’s pilot sort of snuck up on everyone. It’s headache-y stuff, long considered a difficult if not impossible book to adapt – it becomes almost impenetrably meta by the end. Set in an alternate version of the early 1960s in which the Axis powers won World War II, the novel revolves around a group of people connected to one another by an in-universe alternate history novel that tells of the allies winning the war. Novoland: The Castle In Sky has only 20 episodes.Amazon’s pilot season experiment has yielded some surprising successes, among them the acclaimed The Man In The High Castle, a series adaptation of the Hugo Award-winning and highly influential novel by Phillip K. Produced by Tencent Penguin Pictures and Shanghai Film Media Asia ( Twice Blooms the Flower), Novoland: The Castle In The Sky is directed by Yang Lei ( Tumultuous Times Scholars, The Red), and written by Zhang Tan, Li Yu Jie, Yang Zhi Li, and Ni Shan Shan. I’m very fond of the last minute of the trailer, when everything quiets down and scenes are not too cramped together.He didn’t become a butterfly in the end right? Took some screencaptures from the Trailer: Her sweet features might break a lot of hearts, this one. When Tian Yi understands the source of resentment, he and Fu Ling set out to defuse the growing hostility and impending war. And starting a war seems to be a good idea. Some don’t want to be consider as gods they want to acquire and enjoy the wealth and benefits for being the “superior” clan. In the end, all the manipulations stem from within the Yu Clan. When the human race carefully observes the movement of the stars and mistakenly points to Yi Fu Ling ( Guan Xiao Tong) as the suspect, heir/king of Yu Clan, Feng Tian Yi ( Zhang Ruo Yun) tries his best to save and protect her, truly believing that she’s innocent of the accusation. One day, the castle explodes, causing an uproar in the Yu Clan. They live away from the people, high up in the mountains, busy constructing a castle in the sky, to the envy of others.

The Synopsis that I translated before: In ancient times, because of their ability to fly (or make flying objects), the Yu Clan is regarded as gods by all. They are too delicate and pretty, leaving Zhang Ruo Yun with the weird eye color contacts (the girls had it too but it’s pretty on them, Lol). While the trailer is beautifully shot with magical flying objects and winged fairies, I can’t peel my eyes of off the ladies. Boasted as an original story from Shanghai Film Media Asia and Tencent Penguin Pictures, Novoland: The Castle In The Sky (九州天空城) is a short fantasy drama starring some rising new faces in Zhang Ruo Yun, Guan Xiao Tong, Ju Jing Yi, and model Liu Chang.
