The first trailer for the Among Us animated series is out, showing the crew members and suggesting there’s an impostor among them.
The trailer is notable for its lack of dialogue, relying on visuals to convey the suspense and dynamics aboard the spaceship.
The series, spearheaded by creator and executive producer Owen Dennis, builds on the popular Innersloth game, portraying a scenario where alien shapeshifters infiltrate a crew, causing chaos and attempting to eliminate everyone on board.
The animation is produced by Titmouse, known for their work on Big Mouth and Star Trek: Lower Decks.
Executive producers include Chris Prynoski, Shannon Prynoski, Antonio Canobbio, Ben Kalina, and Innersloth’s Forest Willard, Marcus Bromander, and Carl Neisser.
The series boasts an impressive voice cast featuring Randall Park as Red, the captain, Ashley Johnson as Purple, the chief of security, and Elijah Wood as Green, an unpaid intern, among others.
Each character brings a unique role to the story, contributing to the suspense and intrigue as they explore the impostor threat.
Based on the hit game Among Us, the series brings the space-themed mystery to a new medium. Players in the game collaborate to identify the impostor, who aims to sabotage and kill off the crew members.
The game, which has gained a massive following, is accessible on multiple platforms, including Android, iOS, Windows, Nintendo Switch, Xbox, and PlayStation. Additionally, an Among Us manga one-shot was released in 2022, expanding the franchise’s reach and storytelling potential.
