His Dark Materials

In every child’s nightmare, there’s an element of truth. Philip Pullman’s fantasy series will come to life with leads James McAvoy, Ruth Wilson and Lin-Manuel Miranda. Coming to HBO in 2019.

The first season follows Lyra (Dafne Keen), a seemingly ordinary but brave young woman from another world. Lyra's search for a kidnapped friend uncovers a sinister plot involving stolen children, and becomes a quest to understand a mysterious phenomenon called Dust. As she journeys through the worlds, including our own, Lyra meets a determined and courageous boy called Will. Together they encounter extraordinary beings and dangerous secrets, with the fate of both the living — and the dead — in their hands.
