Among Us Animated Series Cast Revealed

Among Us Animated Series Cast Revealed

n an exciting development for fans of the popular video game Among Us, CBS Studios has unveiled the voice cast for the upcoming animated series based on the game. The cast features some of the entertainment industry’s most beloved actors, including Randall Park of Fresh Off the Boat, Yvette Nicole Brown from Community, Elijah Wood from The Lord of the Rings saga, and Ashley Johnson, known for her role in Critical Role. The series promises to bring the thrilling and deceitful world of Among Us to life, with each actor voicing a member of The Skeld, a spaceship crew navigating through sabotage and betrayal. Developed by CBS Studios and animated by Titmouse, the studio behind Star Trek: Lower Decks and The Legend of Vox Machina, the Among Us animated series has not yet announced a streaming platform or network. Owen Dennis, known for Infinity Train, leads the creative charge as the creator of the series. He is joined by executive producers Forest Willard, Marcus Bromander, and Carl Neisser of Innersloth (the creators of the Among Us game) along with Chris Prynoski, Shannon Prynoski, Antonio Canobbio, and Ben Kalina from Titmouse. The Among Us game, first released in 2018, saw a massive surge in popularity during the COVID-19 pandemic. It revolves around crewmates trying to complete tasks on a spaceship while imposters sabotage their efforts and eliminate them. Players must deduce who the imposters are and vote them off the ship to survive. Despite plans for a sequel, the game’s developers chose to expand the original game with new features and maps instead.

DC Studios Announces Live-Action Teen Titans Movie with Ana Nogueira as Screenwriter

DC Studios is bringing the Teen Titans back into the spotlight with a new live-action movie, entrusting the screenplay to Ana Nogueira, famed for her work on Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow. While details remain scarce, including the film's relation to the existing DC Universe curated by James Gunn and Peter Safran, the announcement has sparked considerable excitement among fans. This development comes on the heels of various adaptations of the Teen Titans, including the beloved animated series from the early 2000s, the comedic Teen Titans Go! and its movie, as well as the recent darker, live-action series Titans that concluded on HBO Max in 2023. Gunn has expressed his best wishes for the team behind the Titans series, signaling a respectful transition to this new venture. Nogueira's appointment as screenwriter is particularly intriguing, given her prior involvement in a now-canceled Supergirl film, hinting at a fresh and ambitious direction for the Teen Titans in the DC cinematic landscape.
