Mythic Quest's Megan Ganz & Ashly Burch on Charlie Day's Season 4 Cameo and What Took So Long

AppleTV+’s Mythic Quest is one of the few places where mainstream situation comedy overlaps perfectly with the trials and tribulations of video game production. Never before has the industry been taken on in this way, with both understanding and biting humor. This marriage is by design and only possible because series creators Rob McElhenny, Charlie Day, and Megan Ganz opened their creative arms to new production options, such as casting a massively popular video game voice actor in a lead role. Enter Ashly Burch, famous for voicing games like Fortnite, The Last of Us Part II, and Borderlands. Now, she finds herself smack in the middle of Mythic Quest’s diverse cast of characters. Mythic Quest follows a team of video game developers as they work through the ups and downs of their industry. Led by Ian Grimm (McElhenney) and co-creative director Poppy (Charlotte Nicdao), the team combats movie adaptations, game expansions, and office politics. Burch’s Rachel Mayee, once a game tester, is now the head of monetization, opening up a whole can of narrative worms. The series also stars Danny Pudi (Community) and David Hornsby (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia). With Season 4 hitting the streamer, Ganz and Burch spoke with Collider's Joe Schmidt to discuss all things Mythic Quest. Together they talked about the intersection of the video game industry and writing a comedy series, what the series adopted from It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia, finally getting Day on the show, and dive a little deeper into the spin-off series Side Quest. #MythicQuest #MeganGanz #AshlyBurch For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit https://collider.com FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL   / collider     / collider     / collider
