Innersloth Unveils 'Among Us' Animated Series' Opening Titles, Full Cast List
Innersloth has unveiled the opening titles for their upcoming Among Us animated series, which is currently in the works at CBS Studios!
Innersloth.
Among Us Animated is a show about teamwork and betrayal... in space! The new series will invite viewers to see the world of Innersloth's global hit social deduction game Among Us in a new way. The opening titles reveals the show's theme song and teases the Impostor.
The teaser also reveals that more big names have boarded the animated adaptation of the popular mobile game, including: Patton Oswalt (Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, The Goldbergs, The King of Queens), Dan Stevens (Downton Abbey, Welcome to Chippendales), Debra Wilson (Baby Shark's Big Show, MADtv), Kimiko Glenn (Baby Shark's Big Show, Orange is the New Black), Liv Hewson (Yellowjackets, Bombshell), Phil LaMarr (The Loud House, Futurama), and Wayne Knight (Catscratch, Seinfeld, Hot in Cleveland). They join previously announced stars Randall Park (Always Be My Maybe, Fresh Off the Boat), Yvette Nicole Brown (Drake & Josh, Community, The Odd Couple), Elijah Wood (The Lords of the Rings trilogy, Wilford), and Ashley Johnson (The Last of Us, Blindspot).
First announced as being in development last year, the Among Us animated series hails from CBS Eye Animation Productions and Innersloth, the independent game studio behind Among Us.
Owen Dennis will serve as creator and executive producer on the project under his overall deal with CBS Studios. Per the official logline, the series is based on the premise of the game, namely, “Members of your crew have been replaced by an alien shapeshifter intent on causing confusion, sabotaging the ship, and killing everyone.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.”
Titmouse (Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Star Trek: Lower Decks, Big Mouth) will serve as the animation studio for the series. Along with Dennis, Forest Willard, Marcus Bromander, and Carl Neisser of Innersloth will also executive produce along with Chris Prynoski, Shannon Prynoski, Antonio Canobbio, and Ben Kalina of Titmouse.
Originally released in 2018, Among Us surged in popularity in 2020, when friends could come together during the COVID-19 quarantine to confuse and betray each other in a lighthearted environment.
No network or streamer is currently attached, but those conversations are said to be ongoing, with the series slated to be "coming soon". CBS Eye Animation Productions produces in association with Innersloth.
