Leslie Jones will lead the voice cast of an untitled adult animated comedy series currently in early development at Warner Bros. Animation.
Jones will also executive produce the series along with voicing the character of ‘Plastic’ but the series is NOT connected to that gender-reversed take on DC character “Plastic Man” in the works as a film a few years back. Plot specifics under wraps with no writer, streamer or network attached as yet.
Jones isn’t the only former SNL alum working on an adult animated comedy series announced today. Maya Rudolph has been named as one of the impressive cast of “The Hospital” which Amazon Studios has picked up to series and has already ordered two seasons.
That series will take place aboard an alien spaceship with the surgeons being two alien doctors and close friends (played by Keke Palmer and Greta Lee). Rudolph will voice the 20,000-year-old robot named Dr. Vlam who has endlessly been stuck as an intern.
Natasha Lyonne, Kieran Culkin, and musician Sam Smith also star in the series created by “Russian Doll” and “Big Mouth” writer Cirocco Dunlap who serves as showrunner and executive producer.
