We also just got our first look at Six of Crows‘ spy Nina and witchhunter Matthais, played by Danielle Galligan and Calahan Skogman, respectively.

How it dovetails in with the storyline I hope will be very exciting for our fans.” Describing the featured image above, Heisserer said: “These are three of our Crows, a criminal element who have a mission all their own. “We pitched as ‘ Ocean’s Eleven meets Game of Thrones,'” Heisserer told EW of bringing the Six of Crows gang into Shadow and Bone. You can see gunslinger Jesper (Kit Young), assassin Inej (Amita Suman), and mastermind Kaz (Freddy Carter) in the featured image above. Netflix just released our first look at the Six of Crows crew in the Shadow and Bone TV series. “What Leigh and I had to do,” said Heisserer in the same interview, “was essentially invent prequel stories for the key Six of Crows characters this season - Kaz, Inej, and Jesper - to fit alongside what is happening in the Shadow and Bone storyline. I trusted him and I was right to trust him.” It wasn’t just the keys to a book or one series, it was a whole world I had been working on for the better part of my career. I don’t think I could’ve been more lucky in the person that we found to hand the keys over to. “Eric took two fantasy series - with powers and creatures and horrors and heists - and molded them into this cohesive, incredible thing. “It wasn’t easy!” book author and series executive producer Leigh Bardugo said in a Netflix interview released in December. But what will the incorporation of these two separate-though-related series look like? If showrunner Eric Heisserer ( Bird Box) can effectively integrate the Six of Crows characters into Shadow and Bone, then both book fans and those unfamiliar with the source material alike are in for a treat. The addictive heist drama of Six of Crows brings a different and complementary energy to the dark, fantastical world readers are introduced to in Shadow and Bone. It’s an ambitious choice, given that Six of Crows takes place after the events of Shadow and Bone, but it’s a smart one. In addition to the Shadow and Bone trilogy, the series will also be adapting Six of Crows, a duology set in the same world. Shadow and Bone, the Netflix series adapted from Leigh Bardugo’s gorgeous Grishaverse series, isn’t just a straight adaptation of the book that shares its name.
