There’s a multitude of reasons why Hazbin Hotel became Prime Video’s largest global debut for a new animated series. An especially big one, however? That voice cast. Creator Vivienne Medrano and her team hit it big casting every single character in the show, but there’s one in particular that’s a staggeringly perfect match; Erika Henningsen is Charlie Morningstar. Hazbin Hotel is largely set in Hell where Henningsen’s Charlie, the daughter of Lucifer (voiced by Jeremy Jordan), is fed up with Heaven’s treatment of the souls in Hell. Due to overpopulation, once a year, an army of angels led by Adam (Alex Brightman) swoop down from Heaven and exterminate as many sinners as possible. In an effort to save her people and give them the second chance she thinks they deserve, Charlie creates the Hazbin Hotel, a place where sinners can be rehabilitated and then ascend to Heaven. In celebration of Hazbin Hotel Season 1’s epic run on Prime Video, a run that sparked an enormous diehard fanbase and deserves some serious Emmy season love, Henningsen joined me for a Collider Ladies Night chat to revisit her road to Hazbin, to discuss her experience bringing Charlie to screen, and to tease what the future holds for the character. 00:00 Dicey Questions 08:25 Introduction 10:09 The Lion King 12:34 Does Erika Know How Talented She Is? 15:23 Fake Sneeze or Fake Vomit? 17:03 Studying at University of Michigan 21:42 Les Misérables 24:53 Mean Girls 27:33 Hazbin Hotel Season 1 41:34 Hazbin Hotel Season 2 45:21 What Is Erika Most Proud Of? 48:07 Extra Dicey Question! #hazbinhotel #interview #charliemorningstar #hazbin #primevideo BREAKING NEWS, REVIEWS & MORE: SUBSCRIBE: FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL
