Based on Little Nemo in Slumberland, a series of comic strips by cartoonist Winsor McCay, Netflix’s Slumberland will take young actor Marlow Barkley to a fantasy land where anything is possible. And she will be in good company as her guide through this magical place is no one other than Jason Momoa. Slumberland promises to be a journey filled with colorful characters, but it’s also a tale about grief, as the young Nemo (Barkley) must deal with her father’s sudden death. So, it looks like Slumberland will explore the power of imagination to deal with trauma and heal emotional wounds. After spending a month getting scared by horror movies, we do need some feel-good energy in November.
