Mythic Quest’s Charlotte Nicdao, David Hornsby and Megan Ganz Talk Season 3 at SDCC
41Shortly before the Mythic Quest cast took the San Diego Comic-Con stage in Ballroom 20 and showed a new trailer for Season 3, along with revealing the fall release date, Charlotte Nicdao, David Hornsby and co-creator Megan Ganz stopped by the Collider studio to talk about making the fantastic Apple TV+ comedy series.
If you haven’t yet watched the show, Mythic Quest follows a group of video game developers as they work behind-the-scenes on one of the most popular multiplayer games in the world. Rob McElhenney plays creative director Ian Grimm and is the co-creator and executive producer along with Charlie Day and Ganz. The series also stars Danny Pudi, Ashly Burch, Imani Hakim, and Jessie Ennis.
During the interview, the cast shared some fun behind-the-scenes stories about filming the show, what Season 3 is about, how the upcoming season has another standalone episode, the way they figure out the arc of a season and the finale, how much is scripted versus improv, how Ganz knows the very end of the series, what fans would be surprised to learn about making Mythic Quest, what they collect, and a lot more.
According to Apple, “In season three, must Ian and Poppy navigate the gaming world and their partnership at the newly formed GrimPop Studios, Dana is forced to play mediator to her bosses’ incessant bickering. Back at Mythic Quest, David settles into his new role as the boss where he truly finds himself in charge for the first time with Jo returning as his assistant — more loyal and militant than ever; and Carol attempts to figure out where she fits in after a new promotion. At Berkeley, Rachel struggles to balance her morals with capitalism, while a post-prison Brad tries to return to society as a reformed man.”
