The 2007 film The Golden Compass failed to live up to the expectations and subsequently, the character of Will Parry never made it to the big screens. Will happens to be the protagonist of Philip Pullman’s second novel, The Subtle Knife.

Fans can finally find some delight as the character is being adapted on screen through the actor Amir Wilson. The news broke on the official Twitter account of His Dark Materials where they confirmed the newcomer will take the mantle of Will’s character. Impressively, the series got scheduled for the second season before the first season had even premiered.

As the series continues to diversify the story beyond what was told in the novels, fans are getting even more excited. The Subtle Knife introduces Parry as a 12-year-old boy with an ambiguous appearance, notably 'straight black eyebrows, dark hair with a strong, jutting jaw'. On the book covers, however, it was illustrated as a brown-haired white boy. Wilson, though, still fits the description despite being a young boy of color.

Will is a much different character than Lyra (Dafne Keen), primarily because he hails from the real-world version of Winchester, England. He somehow ends up into an alternate reality through a magical knife, where he bumps into Lyra, who happened to be present there following her adventures in The Golden Compass.
