December 3, 2021 by EJ Moreno

EJ Moreno speaks with Arcane voice actor Reed Shannon about voicing Ekko and preparing for season 2…

Arcane‘s Reed Shannon voices Ekko, the leader of the Firelights. In our interview, we discuss League of Legends, the importance of a young Black character like this, and how he feels about Arcane season 2.

Set in the utopian region of Piltover and the oppressed underground of Zaun, Arcane follows the origins of two iconic League champions-and the power that will tear them apart.

Arcane’s first season received rave reviews and is receiving scores unlike any Netflix series; the series currently boasts an IMDb user rating of 9.4/10, and a 100% on Rotten Tomatoes’ Tomatometer. Furthermore, Netflix has recently announced that the show has been renewed for a second season.

Arcane features the voice talents of Hailee Steinfeld as Vi, Ella Purnell as Jinx, Kevin Alejandro as Jayce, Katie Leung as Caitlyn, Jason Spisak as Silco, Toks Olagundoye as Mel, JB Blanc as Vander, and Harry Lloyd as Viktor.

Season one of Arcane: League of Legends is currently streaming on Netflix.
