Check out the first trailer for Time Bandits:

The trailer basically tells us the premise with a young boy finding out that he has a time portal in his room; then he’s suddenly whisked away to adventures through time where he’ll meet all kinds of historical figures.

Besides Lisa Kudrow being one of the main bandits, the series has also revealed that Waititi and Clement also have roles in the series. No doubt there are also going to be some guest actors to fill in some of the historical figures that the team will meet throughout the season.

For context, here’s a trailer for the original Time Bandits which stars John Cleese and Shelley Duvall:

The original film has all the signature makings of a Terry Gilliam movie with the visuals and humor, and this reboot totally feels like something that could be up Waititi’s alley based on the influences he’s had in his movies.

Though What We Do in the Shadows is a bit more adult-oriented, I am eager to see how Waititi and Clement will team-up to deliver a family-friendly time-travel adventure packed with all kinds of wacky visuals and updated humor.

Time Bandits premieres on Apple TV+ on June 24.
