Which is very impressive given the poor reputation of video game adaptations to movies and TV and how they often disappoint fans. Part of that runaway success is due to the stellar animation but another key to the show's appeal is the adaptation of League of Legends characters to the big screen. Most of the game’s roster has a storyline or personality that remains mostly untapped within the game itself due to its focus on competitive multiplayer. Arcane managed to strike gold in bringing the conflicting motivations and strong personalities of the citizens of Piltover and Zaun to the silver screen.

Sometimes these distractions can be delivered via compelling dramas, while other times classic comedies can truly be the best medicine.

Although there’s a slight change in the overall cast with Regé-Jean Page not retugning and Simone Ashley’s arrival as one of the central characters, the Bridgerton family thankfully stays intact.
