Following news of a new Golden Axe game, the series is also getting an adaptation.
One of Sega 's oldest video game franchises is getting its own animated series. Comedy Central has announced that a show based on Golden Axe has been ordered and will be getting at least 10 episodes. The series is being co-created by Mike McMahan and Joe Chandler , and is being produced by CBS Studios in association with Sony Pictures Television and Original Film.
"Matthew Rhys will play Gilius Thunderhead, a grumpy battle dwarf with exceptionally poor hygiene and a chip on his shoulder. Danny Pudi as Hampton Squib, a naive, inexperienced first time adventurer who has dreamt of questing his entire life. He hopes his can-do attitude can make up for his inability to actually do stuff. Lisa Gilroy as Tyris Flare, a fearsome battle sorceress, deadly in a fight and even deadlier with her sharp wit.
Sega Adaptations Following the success of Paramount's Sonic the Hedgehog films, a number of different Sega franchises and properties have been optioned by various studios. Golden Axe is just the latest example, and it will be interesting to see if the series manages to find success. Comedy Central is promising that the show will be"a hilarious and loving homage" to the Sega games.
