Netflix has unveiled the trailer for `Blood of Zeus,` a new anime original from the studio behind the streaming service's popular `Castlevania` animated series.

Per Netflix, the show's synopsis reads: `In a brewing war between the gods of Olympus and the titans, Heron, a commoner living on the outskirts of ancient Greece, becomes mankind's best hope of surviving an evil demon army, when he discovers the secrets of his past.`

The first half of the trailer is heavy on exposition - an ancient war, an encroaching demon army, a quest for a dead giant's remains - while its latter half is full of impressively stylized action sequences. The show's voice cast includes Jason O'Mara, Derek Phillips, Mamie Gummer, Claudia Christian, Elias Toufexias, Melina Kanakeredes, Jessica Henwick, and Chris Diamantopoulos.



The Texas-based animation studio has worked on a handful of other recent shows, including Netflix's similarly-mature `Seis Manos` and Nickelodeon's `The Adventures of Kid Danger.`

The studio behind Netflix's popular "Castlevania" series will release an animated Greek God-themed show in late October.
