The dragonflight has returned. We are thrilled to be able to shoot again with members of our recording family, as well as new talent on both sides of the camera. All of your favorite heroes will soon be plotting at the council tables, marching with their armies and riding dragons into battle. We can’t wait to share what we have prepared.
