Take a Sneak Peak at ‘Time Bandits’

The trailer for the new Apple TV+ adaptation of the beloved 1981 cult classic Time Bandits is out now! DEGANZ members Jackie van Beek and Armagan Ballantyne have directing credits for an episode each on the 10-episode series.

The action comedy series is an unpredictable journey through time and space with a ragtag group of thieves and their newest recruit: an 11-year-old history buff named Kevin. Together, they set out on a thrilling quest to save the boy’s parents — and the world. Together they stumble upon fascinating worlds of the distant past while seeking treasure, depending on Kevin to shed light on each situation.

The series was created by fellow New Zealanders Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement, along with Iian Morris, and was shot here in Aotearoa.

Time Bandits premieres globally on Apple TV+ on 24 July.
