There’s danger in the realm from a magical arcane relic called The McGuffin Beacon. This device has fallen into evil hands, and only a group of misfits—“a homeless wizard,” “an inebriated goblin,” “a shipwrecked sailor,” “a cocky ringmaster,” “a temperamental monk,” and “chaos incarnate”—can stop the bad guy and prevent reality itself from unraveling.
That’s the premise of the new animated series, The Mighty Nein, which comes from Amazon MGM Studios, Critical Role, and Titmouse, and features the voice talents of Critical Role founders and cast members Laura Bailey (The Last of Us: Part II), Taliesin Jaffe (World of Warcraft), Ashley Johnson (The Last of Us), Liam O’Brien (Marvel’s Avengers), Matthew Mercer (Baldur’s Gate 3), Marisha Ray (Fallout 76), Sam Riegel (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles), and Travis Willingham (Marvel’s Avengers).
That’s a great cast, especially for Critical Role fans, but today at New York City Comic Con, we also learned about some fun guest stars, including Anjelica Huston (Towards Zero, Ballerina), Lucy Liu (Presence), Nathan Fillion (The Rookie, Superman), T’Nia Miller (The Fall of the House of Usher, The Peripheral), Felicia Day (Supernatural, Eureka), Graham McTavish (Outlander) and Ivanna Sakhno (M3GAN 2.0).
We also got a taste of what the series will be like in a newly released trailer: It looks action-packed and features the failings of our ne’er-do-well heroes who just might still save the world because the bad guys won’t see them coming. A solid new installment in the Critical Role world.
The Mighty Nein premieres on Prime Video on November 19, 2025. Check out the trailer below. [end-mark]
