Netflix's Magic: The Gathering animated series is titled Planeswalker and is due in 2027, with the title revealed at MagicCon Atlanta. Eurogamer reported that a Netflix synopsis shared with IGN follows pyromancer Chandra Nalaar, a volatile figure hunted for her gifts and haunted by her past, as she joins legendary Planeswalkers to stop a cataclysmic war threatening their existence. Netflix shared a first look on X on 13 November. Netflix first announced the series in June 2019 with Joe and Anthony Russo attached, and it was originally due in late 2022. After the original showrunners left over creative differences, Netflix confirmed in September 2024 that it had restarted with Terry Matalas in charge. IGN reported that Matalas is running the show alongside Cindy Appel, and Budapest-based DIGIC Pictures is handling the animation. PC Gamer reported that the show will use a different art style for each plane, reflecting the idea of a story about many worlds. Executive producer and supervising director Patrick Osborne said in the trailer that "All the planes exist in their own pocket universe" and that the filmmaking style also changes depending on the location. PC Gamer described the trailer as showing early development art and a few seconds of Chandra and Ajani Goldmane.
