Netflix has unleashed the official trailer for the highly-anticipated new series from visionary creator Adi Shankar — Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix. The series will be available worldwide on Netflix starting on October 19th.

New additions to the voice cast include Caroline Ford as The Warden, David Menkin as Rayman, Courtney Mae-Briggs as Jade, Glenn Wrage as Pay’J, and Daniel York Loh as Pagan Min.
