The Mighty Nein Sneak Peek: It's Like a Deadly Round of Whack-a-Mole

With the animated series set to hit on Nov. 19th, here's a sneak peek at Prime Video, Critical Role, and Titmouse's The Mighty Nein.



Article Summary

  • The Mighty Nein animated series lands on Prime Video November 19th with a star-studded ensemble cast.
  • NYCC 2025 debuted the official trailer and sneak peeks, building hype for Critical Role’s latest adventure.
  • New clips show the party facing chaos at a carnival—expect action, humor, and unpredictable twists.
  • Anjelica Huston, Lucy Liu, Nathan Fillion, and more make up the first season's guest star lineup.

You would think that Prime Video, Critical Role, and Titmouse's The Mighty Nein is making its debut this week, given the big push for the upcoming animated series. Just this past weekend, New York Comic Con (NYCC) 2025 brought the official trailer and an impressive rundown of guest stars (more on that below). But we actually have more than a month to go before November 19th hits, meaning there's more than enough time for another look at what's to come.

Here's a look at the clip that was released earlier today, originally as an exclusive as part of IGN Fall Fan Fest 2025:

And here's a look back at Sam Riegel and Travis Willingham explaining the key differences between The Mighty Nein and The Legend of Vox Machina from earlier this month:

The highly anticipated animated series follows a group of fugitives and outcasts, bound by secrets and scars. But when a powerful arcane relic known as "The Beacon" falls into dangerous hands, they must learn to work together to save the realm and stop reality itself from unraveling. Set to premiere on November 19th (in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide), the series stars Talisen Jaffe as Molly, Liam O'Brien as Caleb, Marisha Ray as Beau, Laura Bailey as Jester, Travis Willingham as Fjord, and Sam Riegel as Nott the Brave. In addition, we have Ming-Na Wen as Dairon, Anika Noni Rose as Marion, Alan Cumming as Gustav Fletching, Tim McGraw as Vandran, Mark Strong as Trent Ikithon, and Auli'i Cravalho as Toya – and that's not all!

And here's the announcement video that was released…

Here's a look back at the first-look image gallery that was released at the top of the month, followed by some key character descriptions and much more:

  • Dairon: Dairon is an Expositor, a secret agent monk of the Cobalt Soul and martial arts expert. Direct and blunt, she becomes Beau's mentor and deepest source of intel.
  • Marion: Marion Lavorre, also known as the Ruby of the Sea, is an upscale courtesan and performer at the Lavish Chateau in Nicodranas. As Jester's mother, she is warm and loving, but also overprotective and untrusting of the outside world.
  • Gustav Fletching: Circus ringmaster, Gustav Fletching, is the eccentric and beloved host of the Fletching and Moondrop Traveling Carnival of Curiosities. He has given a plethora of misfits and malcontents a home at the carnival, like his dear friend Mollymauk.
  • Vandran: Vandran is a stalwart, confident sea captain and father figure to Fjord. Commanding and firm, but understanding and nurturing when needed, he takes Fjord under his wing and teaches him how to be a true leader.
  • Trent Ikithon: Trent Ikithon is the Archmage of Civil Influence for the Cerberus Assembly and Caleb's former manipulative school teacher. Secretly, Ikithon is the head of the Volstrucker, a team of elite wizard assassins that operate under the Empire.
  • Toya: Toya the Vivid Voice is a dramatic 13 year-old performer and tamer of Kylre, a ferocious Devil Toad. With the help of lumino beetles and the sound of her haunting voice, Kylre is precariously under her charm.

The Mighty Nein is an Amazon MGM Studios, Critical Role, and Titmouse production for Prime Video.
