Casting for Sony’s live-action Twisted Metal series continues, with the news that Will Arnett – known for the likes of BoJack Horseman, The Lego Batman Movie, and Arrested Development – will voice the role of insane clown Sweet Tooth.
According to Variety, the show’s version of the iconic Sweet Tooth is a “hilarious and terrifying hulk of a man, who is as emotional as he is cunning. A lover of chaos, this majestic rage-filled killer dons an ever-smiling clown mask and uses ‘Lost Vegas’ as his own personal kill-ground, all while he drives his infamous doomsday ice cream truck.”
The Twisted Metal series – a half-hour action comedy scripted by Cobra Kai writer Michael Jonathan Smith for Peacock – follows a motor-mouthed outsider, played by Anthony Mackie, who’s offered a chance at a better life as long as he can deliver a mysterious package across a post-apocalyptic wasteland dominated by savage marauders driving vehicles of destruction.
