Noel Fielding will voice a character in an animated adult series from The Simpsons creator Matt Groening.
The Great British Bake Off presenter will be joined by his former The Mighty Boosh collaborator Matt Berry in the Netflix fantasy Disenchantment, it was announced on Tuesday.
Fielding and Berry, who played Vince Noir and Dixon Bainbridge respectively in The Mighty Boosh, will also be joined by Rich Fulcher who was Bob Fossil in the cult BBC Three series.
Disenchantment, set in the medieval kingdom of Dreamland, will star Broad City’s Abbi Jacobson as the voice of a hard-drinking princess named Bean.
Nat Faxon will voice her elf friend Elfo and comedian Eric Andre will portray her demon Luci.
Netflix has ordered 20 episodes of the show, with the first 10 being aired next year.
Cindy Holland, a Netflix vice president, said: “Matt Groening’s brilliant work has resonated with generations around the world and we couldn’t be happier to work with him on Disenchantment.
“The series will bear his trademark animation style and biting wit, and we think it’s a perfect fit for our many Netflix animation fans.”
