CBS Studios and Innersloth, the game studio behind the popular video game “Among Us,” are teaming up to create an animated series based on the game. The show will be produced by CBS Studios and will feature the talent of showrunner Owen Dennis, creator of “Infinity Train.” Titmouse Studios, known for their work on shows like “Star Trek: Lower Decks” and “Bigmouth,” will handle the animation.
The series will follow the same premise as the game, with the crew of a spaceship being targeted by an alien shapeshifter who tries to sabotage the ship and create havoc. However, instead of playing with friends and family, the animated series will feature professional voice actors bringing the characters to life.
While no voice cast or images of the animation have been revealed yet, it is speculated that the series might be available on Paramount+, as CBS Studios is involved in the production. However, given the unpredictable nature of streaming platforms, it is uncertain where the series will ultimately be housed.
Owen Dennis, the showrunner for the animated series, has a strong background in animation, having previously worked on the critically acclaimed series “Regular Show” and served as the showrunner for all four seasons of “Infinity Train.” “Infinity Train” gained a dedicated fanbase but was unfortunately cancelled and erased by the streaming service, Max. Despite not having official releases on DVDs or Blu-Rays, episodes of “Infinity Train” can still be purchased digitally through platforms like Amazon and Apple.
As for the release date of the “Among Us” animated series, no specific date has been announced yet. However, it is worth mentioning that the show is covered by The Animation Guild, meaning work on the series can proceed without crossing picket lines.
In conclusion, fans of the popular video game “Among Us” can look forward to an animated series adaptation produced by CBS Studios and Innersloth. With the talented team behind the show, including showrunner Owen Dennis and animation studio Titmouse Studios, expectations are high for an exciting and entertaining series. While details such as the voice cast, animation style, and streaming platform are still unknown, the anticipation for the “Among Us” animated series continues to build. As more information becomes available, fans can stay tuned for updates on this highly anticipated project.
