Rob McElhenney Spoils This Mythic Quest Season 4 Reunion and Why It Had To Wait a Year

Not since Rocky Balboa has a man from Philadelphia taken the world by storm like Rob McElhenney. The man co-created one of the most iconic, absolutely wild sitcoms of all time with It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. He saved a genuine football team (read: soccer) with Deadpool, and turned it into a hit television series, Welcome to Wrexham. He’s also been under the radar at AppleTV+ acting and showrunning in Mythic Quest, one of the most original comedies available on streaming. Now in its fourth season, the comedy has a storied lore of its own, a fanbase growing exponentially, and yet another massive success for McElhenney. Mythic Quest follows McElhenney’s Ian Grimm as he runs his video game studio producing the popular MMORPG Mythic Quest. Grimm finds himself at odds with his lead engineer, Poppy (Charlotte Nicdao), as well as the head of monetization (and janitor), Brad Bakshi, played by Danny Pudi. Known for its genre shifts and standalone episodes, Mythic Quest is also created by Megan Ganz and Charlie Day, alongside McElhenney and co-stars Ashly Burch and Jessie Ennis. Collider’s own Joe Schmidt had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with McElhenney to talk about the new season of Mythic Quest. Together, they discuss secrets to engaging storytelling, how to gradually evolve characters through the life of a series, and which surprising video game adaptation McElhenney thinks would crossover best with Mythic Quest. #mythicquest #robmcelhenney #itsalwayssunnyinphiladelphia For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit https://collider.com FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL   / collider     / collider     / collider
