Comedy Central announces animated Golden Axe ***** show

Comedy Central has announced a 10-episode animated series based on the classic ***** game Golden Axe.

According to the network, the animated show will feature a “star-studded cast”, including Emmy award winner Matthew Rhys, Danny Pudi, Lisa Gilroy, Liam McIntyre and Carl Tart.

The series is produced by CBS Studios in association with Sony Pictures Television and Original Film.

Mike McMahan (“Star Trek: Lower Decks,” “Solar Opposites”) and Joe Chandler (“********* Dad!”) will co-write the first episode and executive produce the series, with Chandler serving as showrunner.

*****’s Haruki Satomi (President/CEO of ***** Sammy), Shuji Utsumi (President/COO of ***** Corporation), and Toru Nakahara (“Sonic the Hedgehog,” “Knuckles,” “Streets of Rage”) will also executive produce.

The synopsis reads: “In a hilarious and loving homage to *****’s 1989 video game series, Golden Axe follows veteran warriors Ax Battler, Tyris Flare and Gilius Thunderhead as they once again battle to save Yuria from the evil giant ****** Adder who just won’t seem to stay *****.

“Fortunately, this time they have the inexperienced and underprepared Hampton Squib on their side.”

Rhys will play Gilius Thunderhead, “a grumpy battle dwarf with exceptionally poor hygiene and a chip on his shoulder”. Danny Pudi is Hampton Squib, “a naive, inexperienced first time adventurer who has dreamt of questing his entire life”.

Meanwhile, Lisa Gilroy is Tyris Flare, “a fearsome battle sorceress, deadly in a ****** and even deadlier with her sharp wit”, and Liam McIntyre is Ax Battler, “a barbarian warrior with a strict code of honor and sweet golden retriever demeanor”.

Finally, Carl Tart plays Chronos “Evil” Lait, originally from Golden Axe III, “a 100% badass humanoid panther”.

Following the success of its Sonic movies, ***** president Shuji Utsumi recently said the company wants to expand the reach of its other biggest franchises, like Persona and Yakuza, beyond video games.

In December, ***** announced that it’s developing new entries in the Jet Set Radio, Streets of Rage, Golden Axe, Shinobi and Crazy Taxi series.
