Alongside Tatasciore, Jason Sudeikis will be playing Bryce, the hit-man ghost, while none other than Captain Sulu himself, George Takei, will be playing Shinji, a politician who Hit-Monkey must protect. Plus, Olivia Munn will play Akiko, Shinji’s niece, who seems to recognize the value in Hit-Monkey’s protection.

Star Trek: Lower Decks
While it isn’t set in the Marvel Universe, we would be remiss not to mention Tatasciore’s show-stopping turn in Star Trek: Lower Decks! As Lieutenant Shax, Tatasciore almost stole the first season.
"He's hardcore, but in some ways terrible for security, because he's just like, 'Oh, someone's hailing? Fire! I suggest we hail fire on them.'" – @FredTatasciore on Lt. Shax #StarTrekLowerDecks #ComicConAtHome #StarTrekSDCC pic.twitter.com/v2rzQQ7N5U

And Tatasciore isn’t the only Marvel alum to appear on Lower Decks! Asif Ali, who played Norm/Abilash Tandon on WandaVision, appeared in the Lower Decks first season episode “Terminal Provocations,” in which he played Ensign Asif.
