Marvel Entertainment and SiriusXM has announced that fan favourite character Doreen Green is now kicking butts and eating nuts as the star of the scripted podcast (a.k.a. audio drama) series Marvel’s Squirrel Girl: The Unbeatable Radio Show!. Check out the official synopsis and trailer below…
Squirrel Girl has taken down Thanos and Doctor Doom – but now she faces something far more terrifying… living authentically. The new series follows Empire State University college student, Doreen Green, who has recently been outed as a super hero – The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl!
Hoping to unify her personas in the public eye, Squirrel Girl has created a new student radio show on ESU’s own college station. With the help of her best girl-friend, Nancy Whitehead as producer, and her best squirrel-friend, Tippy-Toe in the booth; Doreen is ready to help more people than ever with her greatest super hero advice. And when the going get rough, she can always lean on her heroic friends: Iron Man, Spider-Man, Chipmunk Hunk, Koi Boi, and Brain Drain.
However, with a call-in show comes caller anonymity and not all the folks on the line want help – some want to crime – and crime hard! When a suspicious caller wreaks havoc on New York City, Squirrel Girl and her friends will have to put their heroics to the test and prove that once and for all Doreen Green is the UNBEATABLE Squirrel Girl.
The six-episode Marvel’s Squirrel Girl: The Unbeatable Radio Show! is written by Ryan North, directed by Giovanna Sardelli, and has original music by Justin Huertas and Steven Tran. The series stars Milana Vayntrub as Squirrel Girl along with Crystal Lucas Perry (Nancy Whitehead), Leo Sheng (Koi Boi), Davied Morales (Chipmunk Hunk), Peter Hermann (Brain Drain), Erica Schroeder (Tippy T. Squirrel), and Tina Benko (Rachel Oskar).
The first episode of Marvel’s Squirrel Girl: The Unbeatable Radio Show! is streaming now on all podcast platforms. Future episodes will be available exclusively via the SXM App and Marvel Podcasts Unlimited for one week before being available widely on other platforms.
