LOCAL LANGUAGE PRODUCTIONS OF MARVEL’S WASTELANDERS: WOLVERINE, PREMIERE TODAY ON AUDIBLE
March 13, 2024 – Audible, a leading producer and provider of premium audio content, today released the fourth season of the Hindi Audible Original podcast series Marvel’s Wastelanders. The new season, Marvel’s Wastelanders: Wolverine, features Sharad Kelkar as the voice of Wolverine, Mithila Palkar as Sofia, and Neelam Kothari as Jean Grey. The series also features Aadil Khan as Captain America, Vijay Vikram Singh as Professor X/Charles Xavier, Chandan Roy Sanyal as Crossbones, Aalekh Sangal as Red Skull, Chetanya Adib as Cyclops, Abish Mathew as Kevin, and Sachin Kumbhar as Bucky.
Plot: Thirty years ago, Super Villains won. After killing the Avengers, the X-Men, and nearly every other Super Hero, the Red Skull took over the United States. Since that day, a traumatized Wolverine has wandered in a daze of survivor’s guilt and self-loathing over his feelings of failure to protect his fellow X-Men and their mutant students.
Wolverine encounters Sofia, a young mutant in-hiding and vows to transport her into the safe hands of estranged former X-Men Kitty Pryde and Rachel Summers. When the Red Skull and his top lieutenant Crossbones frame Wolverine and escalate anti-mutant sentiment to dangerous new levels, our hero realizes that his only option may be to face Red Skull and his savage allies head on. But a shocking, terrible truth may destroy Wolverine first…
Sharing his excitement on the launch of the series, Sharad Kelkar said, “Bringing Wolverine to life in Marvel’s Wastelanders: Wolverine on Audible has been a truly special experience because he is my favourite Super Hero. Channeling the complexity of his emotions – from guilt and failure to resilience and courage through voice alone was demanding yet very satisfying for me as an artist. I hope listeners feel the intensity and depth of Wolverine’s story and can take away something meaningful from his journey.”
Marvel’s Wastelanders is the first collaboration between Audible and Marvel Entertainment and will be released simultaneously in French, German, Hindi, Italian and Japanese in the respective countries as a global audio experience with top-quality production, featuring renowned and high-profile actors in the roles of Marvel’s legendary Super Heroes.
The English language version of Marvel’s Wastelanders: Wolverine was written and directed by Jenny Turner Hall, with sound design by Michael Odmark and Daniel Brunell, and original music by Rhett Miller and John Burdick.
