After a series of stills and teaser footage, Paramount has dropped the official first full trailer for Children of Blood and Bone, adapting Tomi Adeyemi's popular fantasy bestseller. Rooted in rich West African and Yoruba mythology, the original 2018 novel became a global phenomenon, often described as the "African Harry Potter". The project couldn't get off the ground at Disney partially due to Adeyemi's dissatisfaction with the script and creative choices.
