Spyro Film Website Updates For Cannes

As promised, the Velvet Octopus page for the Spyro film has been updated to coincide with the Cannes Film Festival.

Not much new, but now there's a synopsis:

Quote:
A very special dragon’s egg is being guarded by Ignitus. However, it’s being hunted and is no longer safe. Ignitus hands the precious egg over to a woodland full of Dragonflies to keep. Knowing these creatures are peaceful and more importantly hard to find, Ignitus calls on an allegiance from their distant ancestry. The Dragonflies will protect the egg and raise the dragon as their own.

Brought up alongside Sparx, Spyro is led to believe that he himself is a dragonfly who just happens to be slightly bigger and purpler than the other dragonflies.

Until... one day the village is attacked and Spyro has been found. Instinctively using his unknown powers, Spyro realises just how different he is. Confused and upset, he learns that he is not in fact a dragonfly, but a dragon who carries the role of being part of a great prophecy that will bring peace to all the land.

Spyro, along with his trusty sidekick Sparx pursue this epic adventure and attempt the impossible; the demise of the deadly Dark Master. However, between them stands Cynder, a very powerful black dragon powered by the red crystal around her neck, which enslaves her to the Dark Master. Eventually though, good prevails over evil and Spyro manages to overcome Cynders’ powers and destroy the red crystal. The destruction of the crystal releases all the dead from the Dark Master’s enslavement and everyone rejoices.

All seems well, as Spyro becomes a hero for saving all of dragonkind. However, lurking in the far distance we spy a swirl of clouds… and inside of it, two pulsing red eyes. The story continues….


See it for yourself.

Mark Dippe has been confirmed to direct. The plot starts off sounding like what we saw in A New Beginning, but steers off course. Will this film be contradictory to the games or compliment - acting like an expansion or a back story? Possibly they will act like an interquel - taking place in between what happened in the game.

I'm sure there's still more to come that will tell us the answers.

Oh, wow! Personally, I think it sounds really cool and, at present, I'd put it in a universe on the same street as the games in LoS but not quite related. I rather look forward to seeing their designs for the characters and how they handle the story.
