“Son, kids your age think they’re invincible, and it holds them back, makes them careless,” Omni-Man (J.K. Simmons) tells Mark Grayson (Steven Yeun). “This is the beginning of a long journey for you, son. The thing is, you’re different. You actually are” invincible. Watch the teaser below to see how their game of catch is much different from every other father and son’s, fan-favorite characters, high-flying action, and much more.
Invincible, based on the Skybound/Image comic (which concluded in February 2018 after 15 years) by Kirkman, Cory Walker, and Ryan Ottley, follows 17-year-old Mark, “who’s just like every other guy his age — except that his father is the most powerful superhero on the planet, Omni-Man,” the logline reads. “But as Mark develops powers of his own, he discovers that his father’s legacy may not be as heroic as it seems.”
The cast also includes Sandra Oh, Seth Rogen, Gillian Jacobs, Andrew Rannells, Zazie Beetz, Mark Hamill, Walton Goggins, Jason Mantzoukas, Mae Whitman, Chris Diamantopoulos, Melise, Kevin Michael Richardson, Grey Griffin, and Max Burkholder.
