The most expensive series in MTV's history follows the inhabitants of the Four Lands, a place set thousands of years into the future where cataclysmic war among humans has yielded a new order after wiping out
most of the humans, leaving various troll, dwarf, elf and other species to battle one another and a set of demonic presences in a place called the Forbidding. The lead characters are Wil Ohmsford (Austin Butler), a healer who suddenly discovers his powers, and Amberle Elessedil (Poppy Drayton), who becomes one of the Chosens (guardians of a mystical tree that provides peace in their lands), and sets on a quest outside her elfin kingdom, where she will meet Wil. They will be joined by outlawed scavenger Eretreia (Ivana Baquero). 
Daniel Macpherson and John Rhys Davies also star in John Favreau directed and produced series.
