Breaking News Regarding a WoT Trailer

[Elder_Haman - Patron Supporter]

WoT Up! has a new video out. In it, he discloses that foreign language tracks for the trailer will be recorded on April 22. Since these tracks are the last thing added, it is reasonable to assume that the trailer will be released within a couple of weeks of that date.

 

The rest of the video contains some interesting speculation about what the trailer release means for release of the final product. In the video, Jon uses the Witcher and Game of Thrones as reference points before speculating about a December release. I'll note that Amazon tends to have a much shorter interval between trailer and release date - in most cases no longer than 60 days.

 

Regardless, this is great news and the first concrete information to date about the state of production! What do y'all think?

A June trailer would be awesome, especially because it'll likely give us our first view of trollocs, probably loial and obviously the main cast.

I think trailer in May, show in June.

i wonder if we're getting more teasers before that; it's been 3 weeks already since the latest release

Spot on we just have to show some patience and wait, nothing we say or do here is going to change the release date.

yeah, but if we just take that attitude, then we may as well stop checking the site at all.

Dropping the series in June would be great, if they want it to underperform miserably.  Ain't nobody gonna be wanting to stream a CW-style drama when there's bars, baseball and bbqs to get back to.

on the other hand, if everyone thinks this, then june would be a great time to launch, because there's some people who don't care about all those outdoors activities, and there will be nothing else to watch because everyone else will not be launching shows in summer.

oooh, you know a demographic that is strongly correlated with "doesn't care for outdoor activities"? fantasy fans!

 

not saying it will happen, but i wouldn't discount it.

Right. Because nobody watches TV during the summertime. 🙄

All that stuff will probably go on in Europe, but  America? After 18+ states in the US have prematurely opened, removing mask mandates & maximum occupancy requirements, paired with less than 70% of Americans even willing to get the vaccine, further increasing the risk of it mutating and making the vaccine ineffective. So we'll see?

Right?
And how many shows/movies releases scheduled for this year will be delayed? 
Last summer/Falls Masked Singer was filmed before Covid.  We're probably lucky they filmed the season that just started. 
I'm expecting a new tv-series "drought" this summer.

Not to mention the fact that Earth has a Southern Hemisphere. With people in it.
