Wow, this is some exciting news! Amazon just dropped the bombshell that they’re releasing a new animated anthology series called “Secret Level,” and it’s going to be set in different popular video game universes. If you’re into video games and love seeing those worlds come to life in new ways, this series is definitely something to keep an eye on.
Clive Standen Returns as Titus!
Let’s start with the big one for Warhammer fans: Clive Standen, who you might know from Vikings, is coming back to voice Demetrian Titus in the “Secret Level” series. The episode he’s in is titled “Chaos,” which sounds like it’s going to be a wild ride, especially if you’re familiar with the Warhammer universe. Standen is also going to make his debut as Titus in the upcoming Space Marine 2 game, taking over the role from Mark Strong. That’s a big deal because Titus is a fan-favorite character, and Standen has some big shoes to fill, but he’s more than capable of delivering.
Secret Level’s Mysterious Beginnings
What’s cool about this whole reveal is that we’ve actually been hearing about “Secret Level” for a while, but no one really knew what it was. We’ve been seeing bits and pieces, like Standen’s involvement since early 2023, but without knowing the full picture, it was hard to figure out if it was something to get hyped about. Now that we know it’s an anthology series set in various video game worlds, it all makes sense, and the excitement is real.
New Faces in the Warhammer Universe
Another interesting bit of casting news: Max Rinehart (from Unforgotten and Noah Hawley’s Alien) is going to play a character named Julius in the same episode. We don’t have a ton of details yet, but it’s speculated that Julius could be another Ultramarine. If that’s the case, it’s going to be awesome to see how these characters interact, especially within the intense and gritty setting of Warhammer.
What’s Next?
With “Secret Level,” it looks like Amazon is diving deep into the gaming world, and they’re bringing some serious talent along for the ride. The idea of having different episodes set in different game worlds is genius, and it opens up so many possibilities for storytelling. Whether you’re a Warhammer fan or just love video games in general, this series is definitely one to watch. Keep your eyes peeled for more announcements – this is just the beginning!
