Inspired by the Oscar-nominated film Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron, the Netflix series tells a spinoff story involving Spirit, a wild stallion. In 2002, the animated film shared the journey of Spirit (previously voiced by Matt Damon) as he is captured by humans and slowly loses the will to resist training. He struggles through freedom and refuses to let go of the hope to one day return to his home. – Kara Haar, The Hollywood Reporter http://ift.tt/2oPsnmG
