The popular video game series, Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell, is set to launch its animated version on Netflix, and fans are now privy to a sneak peek of what the series will offer through a newly released trailer and the voice cast unveiled for Splinter Cell: Deathwatch. Over the past few years, Netflix has been active in producing significant adaptations of video games, with anime enthusiasts witnessing these transform into unique visual spectacles as a consequence. Series such as Castlevania, Devil May Cry, Tomb Raider, and others have undergone the anime makeover, and now another Ubisoft franchise is on its way with some renowned creators spearheading it.
At Anime NYC 2025 this past weekend, Netflix showcased a variety of exciting updates, one of which was the announcement of Season 2 for “Devil May Cry” and further details about “Splinter Cell: Deathwatch.” In the upcoming series, Liev Schreiber (“X-Men Origins: Wolverine,” “Ray Donovan”) lends his voice to the main character Sam Fisher. A sneak peek at the new voice cast, which includes some actors from the original game releases, can be heard in the trailer below.
What to Know for Splinter Cell: Deathwatch
The action-packed series, titled “Splinter Cell: Deathwatch,” is set to premiere globally on Netflix on October 14th. Derek Kolstad, renowned for creating the “John Wick” franchise, will pen the new series and serve as an executive producer alongside Helene Juguet, Hugo Revon, and Gerard Guillemot from Ubisoft Film & Television. Directing duties will be handled by Guillaume Dousse and Félicien Colmet-Daage, with animation production at studios Sun Creature and Fost. This upcoming trailer introduces new voices to the cast, including Janet Varney reprising her role as Anna Grimsdottir, alongside Kirby Howell-Baptiste as Zinnia McKenna and Joel Oulette as Thunder.
As an observer, I’ve noticed that the latest trailer for the game adaptation of Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell novel series continues to keep us guessing. Previous promotional materials have hinted at a possible continuation of the storyline, specifically referencing a casket with the name “Douglas Shetland” engraved on it. Given that this character was central to Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow and Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, it appears that Splinter Cell: Deathwatch might be delving deeper into the storyline following those events.
Netflix Is Releasing Even More Anime
This year, Netflix boasts an impressive lineup of upcoming anime and animation series. Beyond the scheduled shows for the Fall Anime Season 2025, there are also fresh productions like this one poised to captivate various audiences. Interestingly, animated content has been thriving on Netflix more than ever, propelled by unexpected hits such as KPop Demon Hunters. This surge in popularity is set to benefit other shows on the platform significantly.
Observing here, it seems Netflix is steadily expanding its repertoire of animated hits, each offering a unique taste to its viewers. For anime and animation enthusiasts, the anticipation is growing not just for the remainder of this year, but also for the exciting lineup in the year ahead. It looks like Netflix’s impressive roster is only set to grow from hereon.
