New 'The Barbarian and the Troll' Clip Introduces the 'General of the Undead Army'

The central skeleton villain in Nickelodeon's The Barbarian and the Troll live-action puppet comedy is introduced to some eager, small helpers.


Fans of the upcoming The Barbarian and the Troll can get their first look at the live-action puppet comedy's central villain.

A new clip introduces viewers to a skeleton character who is tracking Brendar the Barbarian. He refers to himself as the "General of the Undead Army" before being interrupted by small forest dwellers. When the villain tells them that he is on a "revenge quest," they leap into action, requesting to tag along. Check out the sneak peek below, courtesy of CBR:


While the volunteers are eager to help out, our villain reminds them that his quest will be filled with "mayhem and gratuitous violence." However, this doesn't deter them, since only they know how to find Brendar. After some blackmail, they recruit the rest of their friends to tag along on this revenge quest.

In a second sneak peek, also via CBR, Brendar and her mighty talking ax team up for some outdoor training:


The clip starts off with Brendar practicing various yoga poses while her talking ax delivers some words of motivation. "Yeah, feel that stretch. Remember to breathe," the ax says. After calling the ax's father a butterknife, Brendar tosses it at a wooden bullseye. "In my mind, I was hurling it into the demon's gut," Brendar declares as her eyes start to wander off. "Oooo, such a bad barbarian," the ax replies.

Evan eventually shows up with the local wizard and owl to join her quest for redemption. Brendar attempts to give a speech before they start their journey, but the trio has trouble paying attention. The clip ends with Evan and the wizard making "duty" jokes at Brendar's expense.

In the premiere of The Barbarian and the Troll, Evan the troll decides to burn his bridge and venture out into the world of Gothmoria for the first time to fulfill his lifelong dream of becoming a singer. He soon meets Brendar, who had been expelled from the Royal Order of Warrior Princesses and is now known as a “feared and revered” barbarian. After Evan convinces Brendar to bring him on her quest to vanquish the evil demon, they cross treacherous terrain to confront bizarre and magical creatures and encounter an eclectic puppet cast of wacky characters.

The Barbarian and the Troll stars Spencer Grammer, Drew Massey, Colleen Smith, Allan Trautman, Sarah Sarang Oh, Nicolette Santino, Peggy Etra, James Murray, Jeny Cassady and Gina Yashere. The series, co-created by Mike Mitchell, who also serves as director, and Drew Massey premieres Friday, April 2 at 7:30 p.m. ET/PT on Nickelodeon.
