Details on the story and cast for Endless Animation’s Powerless has been revealed. Michael Pena is Noctámbulo, a Batman esque superhero and the hardworking but isolated defender of Miracle City and Anthony Gonzalez is Maraviño, a cocky and young superhero with a long list of powers. Sofia Vergera plays Becca Blackheart, a comical but seriously dangerous supervillain.
“Noctámbulo is Miracle City’s finest (yet has no superpowers) defender but struggles socially while dealing with alter ego problems. Maraviño is the new hero on a block with powers that put Superman to shame. The two immediately start a rivalry as the best defender of the city. But when Becca Blackheart steals Maraviño powers and Noctámbulo is left without gadgets and stranded in a bizarre location. The two must work together to save the city they love and ultimately learn that even the powerless can be powerful.”
Zoe Saldana, Diego Luna, Bill Hader, Renee Victor, Andy Samberg, Jenny Slate and Chris Rock have undisclosed roles.
Powerless debuts in time for Easter Y4. Jorge R Gutierrez will write and direct and Del Toro will produce.
