If you think that all dark superheroes are in the DCEU then think again. Because The Umbrella Academy is no less when it comes to fantastical superheroes in a darkly humorous series.
The trailer for the third season is out and it is no less promising than its preceding ones.
For the unversed, The Umbrella Academy’s story begins in 1989 when 43 women who were not pregnant give birth to children who appear to come in their wombs out of nowhere.
Sir Reginald Hargreeves, an ultra-rich yet eccentric old man adopts 6 children out of them and forms a superhero team. He likes to call them “The Umbrella Academy”.
But something terrible happens and after years the siblings gather at the funeral of the old man. They confess that an apocalypse from the future is inevitable and it must be stopped.
So the second season ends with one of the siblings trying to reunite the others as they need to fight something which might be too much for one.
The trailer gives us an insight into what will happen further in the superhero saga.
This season is all about the messing of the Umbrella Academy against the Sparrow Academy. Practically nothing is known about the powers and existence of the latter but one thing’s for sure. There are too many siblings and too many rivalries to be sorted out.
The series stars Elliot Page, Tom Hopper, David Castañeda, Robert Sheehan, Aider Gallagher, Cameron Britton and more.
So between the new set of siblings, whom do you think will win?
