Earlier today Wizards of the Coast announced the Summer of Drizzt. The famed drow fighter/ranger will be featured in various products including a new novel as well as tabletop and video games which are on the near horizon.
Here’s the reveal:
Wizards of the Coast today announced a summer-long celebration of all things Drizzt Do’Urden, the iconic Dungeons & Dragons hero made famous in countless (30+) novels penned by New York Times best-selling author R.A. Salvatore.
Kicking things off is an animated short narrated by Benedict Cumberbatch and written by R.A. Salvatore released today.
- The battle between our principles and beliefs and the things in our life that challenge them.
- The evils and fundamental unfairness of racism, bigotry and other forms of narrow-minded thinking.
- The strength of family, friendship, and loyalty.
- The importance of living life fully and bravely.
In addition to videogames and novels, the Legend of Drizzt has action figures, Magic: The Gathering cards, Funko POP figures, Halloween costumes, t-shirts, replica scimitars and more. A live action tv show is in development with eOne entertainment and, although not focused on Drizzt, a movie set in the Forgotten Realms starring Chris Pine, Hugh Grant, Rege-Jean Page, Michelle Rodriguez, Sophia Lillis, and Justice Smith is in production.
