At one point, Meg and Nicky discuss what kind of action they could take to get Vaughn off the project, with Meg casually mentioning that doxxing, an extremely insidious act, is an option on the table. The pall cast over the group allows for some cracking jokes about the tricky business of video game movies and the necessity for good casting because otherwise, it all goes to pot. ![]() Things get interesting, though, when Meg's new co-worker, the lovably goofy Russel (Mumeni), enters into the group as a newbie gamer who manages to irk everyone right off the bat before quickly making himself a part of the team.Īnd if you make it through the pilot, you'll be rewarded with a very fun second episode, "Tanadaal." The A-plot of the episode is built around Meg, Nicky, and Usman's despair that Vince Vaughn has been cast in the movie adaptation of Kingdom Scrolls. Together, they enable one another's obsession with the game and let it dominate their lives. Meg's love of and dependency on Kingdom Scrolls is shared by her two friends, Nicky (Merrick) and Usman (Yelda), with whom she stays connected via headset throughout the day.

The series centers on a group of gamers with varying degrees of devotion to a fantasy RPG video game called Kingdom Scrolls. Dead Pixels features a small but solid cast including Alexa Davies (Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again), Will Merrick (Skins), Charlotte Ritchie (Call the Midwife), Sargon Yelda (Spectre), and David Mumeni (Hobbs & Shaw). ![]()
