Tasha Huo and I don't make it a minute into our conversation before we start gushing about wizards - and that's how I know I'm talking to a true Critical Role fan. Huo is the showrunner of "The Mighty Nein," Critical Role's second animated series with Prime Video.

Wyatt Russell, who shares the role of Colonel Lee Shaw with his real-life father, Kurt Russell, is striking off on his own. The yet untitled project will follow his adventures in the '80s, splicing and old-school conflict with the heady sci-fi worldbuilding that brought "Titans" like Godzilla and Kong into the present day.
