If you thought the sprawling cast list for Netflix's upcoming "Dark Crystal" prequel series "The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance" was epic, prepare yourself for the show's sweeping first full trailer.

The clip is packed with eye-popping visuals, depicting the world of Thra and the fight that three Gelflings named Rian (Taron Egerton), Brea (Anya Taylor-Joy), and Deet (Nathalie Emmanuel) spearhead to save it. The trio discover that the evil Skeksis have taken control of Thra's lifeforce, the Crystal of Truth, and vow to reverse the Darkening that the Skeksis have set in motion.

As the show's title suggests, this resistance catches on, bringing something essential to Thra: Hope.

"Hope catches the light, especially in the darkness, revealing your destiny," one character notes.

Though the series takes place many years before the events of 1982's "Dark Crystal," it's clear that the "Age of Resistance" creative team took great pains to emulate the spirit of that film, which was co-directed by Frank Oz and the late Muppets mastermind Jim Henson. The Jim Henson Company created new puppets for the project, which meshes puppetry and cutting edge visual effects with dazzling results.

The huge, star-studded voice cast also includes Mark Hamill, Helena Bonham Carter, Andy Samberg, Natalie Dormer and, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, among many, many more. All 10 episodes of "The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance" will debut on Netflix on August 30.
