Wait, The Pennyworth Trailer Doesn’t Look S**t?

I’ll admit, I wasn’t really a believer when it was announced that Pennyworth would be a show. We already have a show that covers the city of Gotham prior to the arrival of Batman. Do we really need a show that goes even further back and to a different continent that has even less to do with Batman? I still say no, but they’re doing a really good job in slowly getting interested in the prospect of a show that follows Alfred Pennyworth, Bruce Wayne’s loyal butler and confidant.

Epix has now released a new teaser for the upcoming show…and it’s surprisingly not garbage. Seriously, if it weren’t for the name and our familiarity with the character, it would still look like a damn cool show. The teaser itself is only 17 seconds long, but those 17 seconds are used very effectively, helping to set a polished tone and style that helps set it apart from every other DC property out there.

As far as its look and tone goes, it looks very much like a high-quality modern TV series. It doesn’t take the approach that Titans did, with its dark visuals, but is almost going for a golden, old-school spy style that feels almost more at home on the big screen than the small screen. I hate to say it, but I’d probably even be excited if Kingsman: The Great Game ended up looking like this.

So, I’ve pretty much been converted in 17 seconds. But I know you readers are much more selective with your tastes. Have you been won over? Let us know down below!
