Today, at San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel, under its parent company of Disney, released new key art and a clip of the upcoming animated series, Marvel’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur. The release of the key art and clip was made featuring members of the cast and crew during the Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur panel at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con.

Marvel’s “Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur”

Marvel’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur is based on the hit comic series of the same name, which debuted in 2015. It will center on Luna Lafayette, a 13-year-old super genius and her 10-ton T-Rex, the vibrantly red Devil Dinosaur. The animated series stars Diamond White as Lunella (aka Moon Girl); Alfre Woodard as Lunella’s grandmother, Mimi; Libe Barer as Lunella’s best friend and manager, Casey; Sasheer Zamata as Lunella’s mom, Adria; Jermaine Fowler as Lunella’s dad, James Jr.; Gary Anthony Williams as Lunella’s grandfather, Pops; and series executive producer Laurence Fishburne in the recurring role of The Beyonder, a curious and mischievous trickster.

The upcoming project was originally greenlit during an announcement by showrunner/executive producer Laurence Fishburne at the D23 Expo (Disney’s exclusive convention) in 2019. Fast forward to today, the announcement also brings some additional cast members to an already stellar cast to include Gideon Adlon (“Pacific Rim: The Black”), Pamela Adlon (“Better Things”), Anna Akana (“Youth & Consequences”), Ian Alexander (“The OA”), May Calamawy (Marvel Studios’ “Moon Knight”), Wilson Cruz (“Star Trek: Discovery”), Asia Kate Dillon (“Billions”), Luis Guzmán (“How to Make It in America”), astronaut Dr. Mae Jemison, Josh Keaton (“Marvel’s Spider-Man”), June Diane Raphael (“Grace and Frankie”), Paul Scheer (“The League”) and Tajinae Turner (“Meet the Voxels”).
