Alex Hirsch is planning to join the cast of a brand new series.
, to name a few, as this trio went against the grain in many respects. While all three of these shows have already released their series finale, they are finding unique ways to stay in the spotlight. Recently, Alex Hirsch, the man responsible for the Mystery Shack and its employees, has been confirmed to be uniting with one of his fellow animators for an original series that might be far darker than the three series combined.
Earlier this year, animator Matt Braly announced that he was taking to the internet to crowdfund an original animated project dubbed. Looking to create a new version of “The Nutcracker” with a far darker theme, Braly has employed the vocal talent of Alex Hirsch for his cast. While obviously not playing the titular character, Hirsch is set to play the role of Chompers, Clara’s friend, who is clearly a twisted iteration of the Nutcracker dolls. Considering Hirsch voiced the likes of Grunkle Stan and Bill Cipher inarrived on Kickstarter asking if fans could help fund the project with an ultimate goal of $25,000 USD. As promoted by the campaign, this dark animated series made that amount in fifteen minutes and has since skyrocketed to close to a quarter of a million dollars. The series has already announced that future episodes are in the works following the successful campaign, and here’s how Braly himself announced that Alex Hirsch and voice actress Anna Akana are joining the line-up: “Happy Friday!!! To cap off our incredible week, take a look at who will be providing voices to our two leads!! The incredible Anna Akana and Alex Hirsch as Clara and Chompers, respectively!!! Anna was Sasha Waybright in “” who was always a drop-dead fan favorite character, so we are so pleased to be working with her again. Hirsch has been nothing short of a cheerleader and mentor to me my entire career, so it’s a feel-good story to have him involved too!!”, if this is your first time hearing of the project, here’s the official description from the campaign: “To save her bedridden ex-military father, Clara must fight the spirits of the soldiers he killed on the battlefield, in a surreal world under her house known simply as The Below. She is aided by a mischievous toy mutcracker who represents her innocence and childhood, her only guide in a place where the ghosts of the past run rampant.” It might be some time before we see the first episode arrive, though, based on what fans have seen so far, it might be well worth the wait.PlayStation Plus Users Hail New Free PS5 Game as “The Best Game on the Service in a Long Time”
