'The Mandalorian' trifft auf 'Avatar' in Netflix' neuem Sci-Fi-Western-Meisterwerk

Created by LeSean Thomas and Studio Mir, who both worked on The Legend of Korra, Bass X Machinais a reimagining of the story of Bass Reeves (Brian Tyree Henry), an escaped slave who worked in Indian Territory as a deputy U.S. Marshal. Reeves’ real life was extraordinary, and is said to have inspired the character of the Lone Ranger, but Bass X Machinaalso gives him a cybernetic arm that shoots magic bullets. The criminals he fights get even bigger upgrades, and the stakes can at times escalate to truly ludicrous levels. Henry does an especially great job expressing exasperation as Bass faces plenty of absurd foes, like an outlaw in a rampaging bull mech that requires complex cooperation to take down.
