The Among Us animated series has resurfaced with the first wave of voice cast announced.
Among Us’s voice cast includes Randall Park (Louis Huang in Fresh Off the Boat), Ashley Johnson (Ellie in The Last of Us, Critical Role), Yvette Nicole Brown (Shirley Bennett in Community), and Elijah Wood (Frodo in Lord of the Rings).
Among Us is based on the phenomenally popular social deception game that blew up during the pandemic and became one of the most-watched games on streaming platform Twitch. It’s an animated series from CBS Studios, developer Innersloth, and creator Owen Dennis.
Here are the details of the Among Us animated series voice cast:

In January, Innersloth released the first image from the Among Us animated series, offering fans a familiar glimpse of the show. The image shows the cafeteria from Among Us’ original map, the Skeld, with pizza and plates spread across the tables along with some balloons and a blood-covered banner that visibly shows the words: “We’re Dead.”
The Among Us animated series was first announced last June. Titmouse, the studio behind animated series such as Big Mouth and Star Trek: Lower Decks, is tasked with animating the series.
