Astroverse | Minecraft Superhero Cinematic Universe
Project Overview
Astroverse is a new original superhero universe created by Joziah2 and Kitkatgalaxy, two Minecraft machinima creators. We have joined together to create Kaziah Productions - a new YouTube channel where our joint projects will be uploaded. Astroverse will consist of multiple phases (4-5) each consisting of 3-5 films. This is a casting call for four films included in ‘phase 1’ of Astroverse. We have kept this casting call as simple as possible to avoid spoilers, thus why we have only listed character names, and not their superhero names.
Note: There will be some swearing across Astroverse, but it’ll be very minor - Most characters won’t swear at all.
If you’d like to know more about Joziah2 and Kitkatgalaxy, you can have a look at their individual channels below.

We’re blown away by how many auditions we’ve received over the last few weeks, with some truly amazing voice actors showing off their talent for us to choose from. However, a handful of the roles are receiving the majority of the auditions. Kitkat and I decided it would be a good idea to cast some of those characters (only the ones who have auditions we’re really really happy with) early, in hopes of drawing some attention to the other roles. Thank you to everyone who has auditioned so far!! ~ Joz
ANTI-HERO
An older gentleman who despite his age, is still full of energy! While he can be a bit reckless he's got a big heart and his head is screwed on straight. He's got a penchant for sarcasm and snappy comebacks.
Voice: Low ranged
Important: Creepy, Sarcastic, Mature or Menacing depending on the line.
Films: Tombstone, Darkness Rising
(sarcastic) Ever been punched by sand?
This sounds an awful lot like not-my-problem.
(menacing) Despite what you’ve said, if you’re ‘beyond human'... That makes you just as much of a monster as me, doesn’t it.
HERO
A man married to his work after being divorced by his wife, Nicholas is a mature and focused man with a soft spot for his only daughter. His focus on work may leave him a little rude, but he makes up for it with scientific knowledge.
Voice: Mid to low ranged
Important: Nicholas will have a screaming line.
Films: Vortex, Mindwipe, Darkness Rising
(stern) Oh cry me a river! You'll need to toughen up if you're going to be a hero.
(stressed) I wouldn't describe any part of the last 30 minutes as 'safe'.
(disappointment) ...And in the process, you accidentally removed the stop function from the machine?
HERO
Malachi - The nobody. The below average teen who can't seem to catch a break from the boys at school. His childish nature, confidence and attitude routinely get him into situations he can't handle, but he's not one to let that hold him down. He also loves Superheroes... Like, he's obsessed.
Voice: High to mid ranged
Important: SOUNDS YOUNG! Requires decent emotional range.
Films: Mindwipe, Darkness Rising

A shy young lady whose beauty would turn heads if she ever left her house. While soft-spoken, she has a strong sense of justice and a desire to help everybody. If only she were brave enough to do so.

(shy/cute) Ice cream... It makes people happy.
*cute noises* (If you can't think of anything, try something like 'Eeeee' or a short squeal/scream)

Here comes...! THE TANK!!!! (smashes the ground)
Well, thanks for watching over my sweet little pea. We'd best be heading home now.

(mocking) Step aside boys. Malerie is feeling more confident today.

Jan is sassy, uncooperative, unmotivated, spends most of her time on her phone, and somehow is still OVERQUALIFIED for her job at A-tex. Her attitude aside, she's a smart and cool-headed young lady.

Films: Mindwipe, Darkness Rising
Malachi! Oh sweetie what happened to you- Who are they?
(laughs) You are such a funny guy. Honestly, you're the funniest guy I've EVER met!
(indignant) Who raised you? Who cared for you? Who gave you ALL THE LOVE AND AFFECTION YOU DESERVE?
The extra roles in Astroverse range from students to civilians to guards.
There are a lot of extras across all films and phases, so we're in need of a lot of voice actors!
[Officer] Sorry guys, can't let you through here. There's been some kind of accident up ahead.
[Teacher] How DARE you speak to ME in such a manner! That's detention young boy!
[Guard] Miss, you're not supposed to be in this part of the prison.
