Trivia
- Wizards was originally announced to be released by the end of 2019. However, Guillermo Del Toro confirmed on his Twitter accounts that the release has been delayed to summer of 2020.[9][3][10]
- This also means that Wizards will be the first (and only) installment to not premiere in December, unlike Trollhunters (which officially premiered on December 23rd, 2016) and 3Below (which premiered on December 21st, 2018).
- Netflix and DreamWorks PR teams have been reached out, concerning any future updates to come.[11]
- According to confirmed music composer, Jeff Danna, the first (and apparently the only) part of Wizards will only have ten episodes. As of May 2, 2020, DreamWorks Animation is currently in production of the 8th episode.[1]
