‘Vampire Academy’: Lissa and Rose Dance Alongside Trouble in First Teaser Trailer (Video)

The show’s Comic-Con panel also brought eight first-look images and the show’s teaser art

A brand new vampire crew from showrunner Julie Plec is on display in the teaser trailer for Peacock’s supernatural YA drama “Vampire Academy,” which premiered at Comic-Con on Thursday.

In the newly-released clip, Lissa (Daniela Nieves) is currently preparing to take over as the head of the Dragomir family, and in turn, take the throne of the entire kingdom.

She may be absolutely terrified, but she’s also determined to keep her dominion from falling into political chaos. Fortunately, she has the help of her best friend Rose (Sisi Stringer) — a guardian, trained to protect, and willing to do whatever it takes to keep her best friend safe. Even if whatever it takes is “dancing alongside” of trouble.

Peacock also dropped several new images from the series — and show art — during the panel.
