'Archer: 1999' Preview: Some Advice? Avoid Arousing Giant Rock Monsters [TEASER]
Last month, the fine folks at FXX treated fans to the first official trailer for Archer: 1999 – the gang's upcoming trip across time and space (and genres) – ahead of its May 29th return. Now we're getting a better look at what fans can expect when The World's Worst Spy Agency (keeping out fingers crossed it gets back to that someday) takes to space to save the day – and cause as much damage as they can in the process – in the following teaser.
The series writers have been taking full advantage of the "It's all in Archer's head" theme, using it to their advantage to offer diferent takes on the characters, new environments, and unique storyline situations. In the past, Archer and the crew have found themselves in the film noir/dime novel detective-themed Archer: Dreamland. From there, it was a South Pacific world filled with spies, smuggling, and danger in Archer: Danger Island.
Here's a look at the official trailer for Archer: 1999, shining a spotlight on the humorous side of sci-fi films like Alien – with our "special" team (in every sense of the word) of agents breaking beyond the bonds of Earth to spread humanity's message across the universe.
