Henchmen is the first animated feature film from Bron Studios. The official synopsis reads as follows:
Middleditch will voice Lester, the new recruit, and Marsden is Hank, the crew leader. Middleditch is best known for playing neurotic programmer / CEO Richard Hendricks on HBO’s Silicon Valley. Marsden’s recent credits include Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues and the indies Welcome to Me and The D Train. Additionally, he’ll be seen later this year in HBO’s Westworld.
The rest of Henchman’s cast includes Dawson (Daredevil), Fillion (Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog), and Molina (Spider-Man 2), as mentioned above, plus Jane Krakowski (30 Rock), Rob Riggle (The Daily Show), Craig Robinson (Hot Tub Time Machine), and Will Sasso (The Three Stooges). Details for their characters have not been revealed.
Adam Wood is directing Henchmen from his own script. Although Henchmen marks his first time directing a feature film, he’s a veteran animator who’s worked on Pixar’s Up, Ratatouille, Finding Nemo, and more. Bron Studios’ Aaron L. Gilbert and Luke Carroll will produce, and CW Media Finance’s Jason Cloth and Bron’s Brenda Gilbert will executive produce.Henchmen is already in production and is expected to open sometime in 2016.
