Christopher Lloyd Joins Mirabilis

Doc Brown, aka Christopher Lloyd, (seen here in Law & Order: CI) has joined the cast of SCI FI Channel’s upcoming 4-hour fantasy/adventure miniseries Mirabilis. Lloyd will play Tesselink, a venerable senior elf and accomplished master of bloodsteel sorcery who aids his granddaughter Perfidia (Natassia Malthe) and a band of knights in their quest for the crucible that may save Mirabilis.

Once a paradise fueled by the all-powerful sorcery-grade metal known as bloodsteel, the distant land of Mirabilis begins to decay as supplies of the supernatural substance dwindle. The evil warlord Dragon Eye fights to gain control of the world’s supply of bloodsteel, which he will use to rule Mirabilis. But, an ancient prophecy propels four ordinary citizens to battle Dragon Eye. Their quest is to find the fabled Crucible – source of all bloodsteel – before the corrupt forces of darkness destroy their world.

Lloyd as an Elf king?  That’s a role he was born to play!
