How do you want to do this, Supa-Fans? It’s the announcement you’ve all been waiting for! Supanova Comic Con & Gaming rolls a Nat 20, as the cast of Critical Role sign on for Sydney, 21-22 June at Olympic Park!
Appearing hot on the heels of their sold-out 10-Year Anniversary Live Show at the ICC Sydney Theatre (Thursday, 19 June), all eight of the Critical Role’s founding cast members will join the Supa-Star-studded adventure, led by DM and Chief Creative Officer Matthew Mercer.
The legendary Game Master will make his Supa-Star debut alongside the head of the Critical Role Foundation, Ashley Johnson; Fearne Calloway in the smash-hit series. A prolific voice actress, Johnson can be heard as Ellie in The Last of Us duology, joined by her Part II co-star and returning Supa-Star Laura Bailey, Critical Role’s chaotic cleric Jester Lavorre, and Abby in the multi-award-winning AAA sequel.
Also set to make their first-ever Supa-Star appearances are Taliesin Jaffe, Vox Machina’s Percival de Rolo III and the Mighty Nein’s fan-favourite tiefling, Mollymauk Tealeaf; Emmy Award winner Sam Riegel a.k.a. Scanlan Shorthalt; and Creative Director Marisha Ray, best known for her characters Keyleth, Beau, and Laudna.
Anime aficionados will also recognise Jaffe as One Piece’s Basil Hawkins, while Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney fans will have no “objections” to Riegel as the game’s titular lead. Ray has also left her mark on the medium, notably lending her voice to several characters across the Fire Emblem franchise.
Returning Supa-Stars include Critical Role CEO Travis Willingham, the party’s resident raging Barbarian, Grog Strongjaw; and the Champion of Ravens, Vax’Ildan a.k.a. Liam O’Brien, heard as World of Warcraft’s Illidan Stormrage, and Gaara in Naruto,amongst countless other roles.
These Supa-Star celebs assume a ‘Critical Role’ alongside their previously announced co-star Anjali Bhimani (Critical Role’s Fy’ra Rai); Outlander’s David Berry, Richard Rankin, and Sam Heughan* (*Kilted & Distilled: An Outlandish Adventure in Oz exclusive); fan-favourites Alex Kingston, Ernie Hudson, and Katee Sackhoff; plus so many more!
Tickets to Supanova in Sydney will go on sale on Thursday, 24 April via Ticketbooth, with Autograph and Photograph Tokens to follow closer to June. The Critical Role cast will offer two exciting group panels across the weekend, with one scheduled for each day, so mark your calendars and roll for initiative!
