First Official Image From MTV's SHANNARA CHRONICLES
MTV has debuted the first official still from their Jon Favreau-produced adaptation of Terry Brooks' series of Shannara novels. Take a look at Ivana Baquero as Eretria and Austin Butler as Wil Ohmsford.
Jon Favreau and Smallville duo Al Gough and Miles Millar will produce the show, which is based on the 20-strong series of novels (there has been one graphic novel also - The Dark Wraith Of Shannara - published back in 2008) in Terry Brooks' Shannara saga. The story is set after the destruction of our civilization in the "great wars", with the world reverting to a medieval state and magic re-emerging. Many of the protagonists in the story are descended from the Eleven noble family of Shannara.
Apparently the TV show will begin by adapting the second novel in the series, The Elfstones Of Shannara. The first two episodes will be directed by TMNT's Jonathan Liebesman.
