To promote the forthcoming series, NBC has debuted a new clip (via IGN) introducing the company’s employees with narration from none other than Adam West, the original television Batman.
West’s vocals are accompanied by classic artwork animated and embellished to show the citizens in the background of the superbattles.
It also shows clips previously revealed from the show’s plot, but West subverts the dramatic nature of his delivery by showcasing the plight of the common man in these fights. Check it out.
Emily Locke lands her dream job as Director of Research and Development for Wayne Security in Charm City, home to super heroes and villains and citizens fed up with the collateral damage of their constant fighting. Full of confidence and big ideas, Emily quickly learns that her aspirations far exceed those of her new boss and officemates, so it will be up to her to lead the team toward their full potential and the realization that you don’t need superpowers to be a hero.
The cast: Vanessa Hudgens, Alan Tudyk, Danny Pudi, Christina Kirk, and Ron Funches.
Justin Halpern, Patrick Schumacker, Len Goldstein, Marc Buckland and Dean Lorey are executive producers of Powerless. Buckland served as the director of the pilot. The series is produced by Warner Bros. Television and is based on the characters from DC.
