Archibald’s Next Big Thing Sets Star-Studded Cast

DreamWorks Animation’s Archibald’s Next Big Thing, a Netflix original series created by and starring Tony Hale (Veep, Arrested Development), has added Rosamund Pike and Adam Pally to its voice cast.

Inspired by the book of the same name written by Hale, Tony Biaggne and Victor Huckabee, Archibald’s Next Big Thing follows the adventures of the titular chicken who “yes-ands” his way through life but who always finds his way home when living in the moment leads him astray. Hale executive produces the series, which is slated to debut this year on Netflix, alongside Eric Fogel.

While Hale voices Archibald in Archibald’s Next Big Thing, the cast features Pally as Archibald’s outdoorsy older brother Sage, Chelsea Kane (Baby Daddy) as Archibald’s science-whiz sister Loy, Jordan Fisher (To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before 2) as Archibald’s artistic brother Finly and Kari Wahlgren (Spirit Riding Free) as Archibald’s best pal and sidekick Bea. Pike serves as the show’s playfully sarcastic narrator.

Casey Wilson, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, RuPaul, Christine Baranski, Gary Cole, Joel McHale, Chris Parnell, Alan Tudyk and Matty Cardarople are among Archibald’s Next Big Thing‘s season one guest stars.
