by · GeekTyrant

Netflix has released a trailer for its supernatural animated series titled Jentry Chau vs the Underworld, and it looks like a spooky fun show!

The horror comedy series centers on Jentry Chau (Ali Wong), “a Chinese-American teenager living in a small Texas town, who finds out a demon king is hunting her for the supernatural powers that she's been working her whole life to repress.

“With the help of her weapons expert great-aunt and a millennia-old jiangshi (Chinese hopping vampire), Jentry must now fight an entire underworld’s worth of monsters while balancing the horrors of high school.”

The series comes from Echo Wu and this is her first real series. She shared in a statement: "Sometimes finding your self-identity is coming face-to-face with your own demons. There are different layers to what that means.

“It rings quite true in Jentry. She's trying to figure out what these powers mean to her. Are they part of her? Are they cursing her? You see this character trying to figure out who she is."

The project was developed at the animation studio Titmouse (The Venture Bros., Star Trek: Lower Decks, Scavengers Reign) and the voice cast includes Bowen Yang, Lori Tan Chinn, Lucy Liu, Jimmy O. Yang, Sheng Wang, Woosung Kim, and A.J. Beckles.

Netflix will debut the series on December 5th, 2024.
