Elijah Wood, Ashley Johnson Join “Among Us” Animated Series

CBS Studios has announced some initial casting for their upcoming animated take on hit video game, “Among Us.” We have to say, some of these choices are NOT ‘sus. Randall Park (“Always Be My Maybe,” Marvel Studios films), Yvette Nicole Brown (“Community“), Ashley Johnson (“The Last of Us” video game series), and Elijah Wood (“The Lord of the Rings” trilogy) will lead the cast as the iconic spacesuit-wearing colors.

Owen Dennis created the series, and will serve as executive producer. Titmouse (“Big Mouth,” “Star Trek: Lower Decks“) will handle the animation.

Randall Park will voice Red, Captain of The Skeld. He’s a people-pleaser, but also a blowhard. His task is leadership, and confidence. Fun Fact: failed upwards

Ashley Johnson will voice Purple, Chief of Security. She’s known for her focus on safety, suspicion, and sarcasm. Her task is being the wet blanket. Fun Fact: trust issues

Yvette Nicole Brown will voice Orange, head of HR. She’s mostly a spineless corporate shill, with the task of eliminating redundancy, redundantly. Fun Fact: fires you over email

Elijah Wood will voice Green, the Unpaid Intern. He’s just happy to be there, and will do whatever they’re told. Fun Fact: gets paid in pizza

“Members of your crew have been replaced by an alien shapeshifter intent on causing confusion, sabotaging the ship, and killing everyone. Root out the ‘Impostor’ or fall victim to its murderous designs.”

The project is reportedly in production now. Soon as we hear about a release date, we’ll let you know.
