NETFLIX's ENTERGALACTIC
- Jessica Williams, Timothée Chalamet, Ty Dolla $ign, Laura Harrier, Vanessa Hudgens, Christopher Abbott, 070 Shake, Jaden Smith, Keith David, Teyana Taylor, Arturo Castro and Macaulay Culkin have been added to the voice cast of the upcoming animated series created by Scott "Kid Cudi" Mescudi and Kenya Barris.
- Williams will play Meadow, an on-the-rise photographer who is Jabari's (Mescudi) new neighbor. She is not only the coolest girl at the party, she's the realest.
- Chalamet will play Jimmy, Jabari's best friend and weed dealer, though with the new drug laws he's now focusing on crypto and new inventions. An oxymoronic, laid back conspiracy theorist, he is never without a blunt and a book.
- Ty Dolla $ign will play Ky, Jabari's irreverent, and at times, inappropriate road dog. He is always there for Jabari, even though his support can sometimes come in interesting packages.
- Harrier will play Carmen, Jabari's recent ex-girlfriend. Stylish and confident, she is the girl you're supposed to marry.
- Hudgens will play Karina, Meadow's best friend who is trustworthy, grounded and adorably pregnant.
- Abbott will play Reed, a well-dressed shark with a heart and art dealer representing Meadow's photography. He has the kind of chin that is sharp enough to cut glass but not strong enough to take a punch.
- 070 Shake will play Nadia, Meadow's associate from the art scene. Born and raised in New York City, she is an in-your-face sculptor whose voice could only be drowned out by the brashness of her own work.
- Smith will play Jordan, an adolescent BMX superstar. His talent earns a pass to kick it with Jabari and Jimmy. He sees the dating landscape in New York City just a bit different than Jabari.
- David will play Mr. Rager, Jabari's superhero creation.
- Taylor will play Boxing Coach, Meadow and Karina's hard-nose boxing instructor at Rumble NYC.
- Castro will play Len, an upwardly mobile professional and Jabari's co-worker at Cosmic Comics. He wears hard-bottom shoes and a newsboy cap. He's super smart and super annoying.
- Culkin will play Downtown Pat, a Downtown legend and life-long, city-wide delinquent. Despite his gritty exterior, Pat has a very romantic heart and wise words to give.
