Our First Good Look At Gen: Lock Is High On David Tennant, Low On Giant Robots

Rooster Teeth’s next animated series is set to take us to a far future of giant robot action. But our first real good look at the show is surprisingly mecha-free — instead, focusing on the show’s equally surprising major cast.

Rooster Teeth just dropped the first full scene from Gen: Lock — which, full disclosure, includes writing from our contributor Evan Narcisse.

It sees mecha mastermind Doctor Fuller (voiced with an almost Scrooge McDuck-ian level of Scottish brogue by DuckTales and Doctor Who‘s own David Tennant) meeting the bright young candidates for his pilot program, hoping to bring about a new era of mecha users to aid in a war humanity is currently on the losing side of.

As well as Tennant, we also get to briefly hear from a few more of the show’s impressive voice talent, including Maisie Williams’ hacking maestro Cammie McCloud, and of course, Michael B. Jordan as Gen: Lock‘s protagonist, Julian Chase.

Which, fine, sure, if you have a cast like that, you probably wanna show that off before the giant robots! At least we get a few in the sizzle real at the end.

Gen: Lock is currently set to land on Rooster Teeth 26 January 2019.
