Among Us animated series showrunner considers an anthology in the style of "The Twilight Zone"
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
If renewed, Owen Dennis might bring back deceased characters and re-imagine events in a new way.
Owen Dennis, the showrunner of the Among Us animated series, known for "Infinity Train," shared his plans for a potential continuation of the project. In an interview with CinemaBlend, the creator admitted that if renewed for a second season, he doesn't want to make a direct sequel — instead, he is considering an anthology format.
"I love anthologies like 'Alfred Hitchcock Presents,' 'The Twilight Zone,' or 'Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities.' If we get the green light for a continuation, a cool idea would be to keep the same characters but completely change the order of murders and see how the story develops in a new way. In this format, you can do something really cool."
The premiere of the Among Us series took place on the eve of Summer Game Fest, where a new single-player game for the franchise was also announced. Because of this, the project effectively went unnoticed by critics: currently, only one review from GamesRadar is available on Rotten Tomatoes. However, early viewers received the show positively. The user rating on Rotten Tomatoes is 98%, and the IMDb score is 7.3 based on the first thousand reviews.
