A panel at WonderCon@Home featured the cast of the upcoming Marvel series, M.O.D.O.K. participating in a Q&A where they also announced upcoming guest stars on the show.
What’s Happening:
- Who’s ready to take over the world? M.O.D.O.K. sure is…even though he’s going to hit a roadblock every step of the way, whether it be A.I.M. headquarters or back at home with his wife and two kids.
- In Marvel’s M.O.D.O.K., the megalomaniacal supervillain M.O.D.O.K. has long pursued his dream of one day conquering the world. But after years of setbacks and failures fighting the Earth’s mightiest heroes, M.O.D.O.K. has run his evil organization A.I.M. into the ground. Ousted as A.I.M.’s leader, while also dealing with his crumbling marriage and family life, the Mental Organism Designed Only for Killing is set to confront his greatest challenge yet?
- How can a megalomaniacal super villain have it all? We’ll find out in Marvel’s M.O.D.O.K., premiering May 21 on Hulu!
- The cast and crew of M.O.D.O.K. hosted a WonderCon@Home Panel, featuring stars:
- Patton Oswalt (M.O.D.O.K.)
- Melissa Fumero (Melissa)
- Aimee Garcia (Jodie)
- Ben Schwartz (Lou)
- Jon Daly (Super-Adaptoid)
- The cast was joined by creator, writer, and executive producer Jordan Blum for a fan Q&A covering all aspects of M.O.D.O.K.’s work and home life.
- Back at home, M.O.D.O.K.’s wife Jody is just about at wit’s end with her husband’s evildoings. Meanwhile his two kids, Melissa and Lou, don’t fall far from the tree…and also fall very far from the tree. It’s hard not to notice that Melissa bears a striking resemblance to her father (and is also a very good figure skater). As for Lou, he could care less about world domination since his thoughts lie with picking the best bar mitzvah theme.
- Along with the core cast, the WonderCon@Home Panel also revealed a handful of guest stars, including: Jon Hamm as Iron Man, Whoopi Goldberg as Poundcakes, Nathan Fillion as Wonder Man, and Bill Hader as Angar the Screamer and The Leader.

What They’re Saying:
- Creator, writer, and executive producer Jordan Blum: “He is this character that aspires to be like Doctor Doom, this kind of like menacing villain, but he always falls short of it. The fact that he's conscious that he's not an A-Lister drives him insane. What’s his home life like, while also running an evil organization?”
- Ben Schwarz: “I think we're the only Marvel show to have our big finale take place at a bar mitzvah.”
