An animated series based on Among Us has cast several prominent actors to voice the characters inside the multi-colored spacesuits.
Randall Park, Ashley Johnson, Yvette Nicole Brown and Elijah Wood will star in the series from CBS Studios and the video game’s developer, Innersloth. The show, which doesn’t have an outlet attached yet, will follow a similar premise as that of the game: The crew of a spaceship tries to find an alien shapeshifter who’s impersonating and killing crew members.
Park (WandaVision, Always Be My Maybe) will voice Red, the people-pleasing, blowhard captain of the Skeld ship. Ashley Johnson (The Last of Us video game, Blindspot) plays Purple, the ship’s suspicious and sarcastic head of security. Brown (Community, Apple’s Central Park) will play Orange, the head of HR. Wood (Yellowjackets, The Lord of the Rings) will play Green, an unpaid intern.
CBS Studios and its animation arm, Eye Animation Productions, started developing Among Us in the summer of 2023; Titmouse (Big Mouth, Star Trek: Lower Decks) is handling the animation. Innersloth and CBS Studios released a teaser image for the show in late January.
Owen Dennis (Infinity Train), who has an overall deal at CBS Studios, created the Among Us series and executive produces with Forest Willard, Marcus Bromander and Carl Neisser of Innersloth and Titmouse’s Chris Prynoski, Shannon Prynoski, Antonio Canobbio and Ben Kalina.
