As per the synopsis on Hulu -- 'Taking over the world has never felt farther away as the megalomaniacal supervillain M.O.D.O.K. struggles to maintain control over his evil organization and his demanding family.' Here's a look at the talented cast of actors voicing the main animated characters in what looks like a hilariously promising series.

Patton Oswalt

Patton Oswalt plays the role of M.O.D.O.K., one of Marvel's comicverse's most notable villains. While the comic book character is a lot more dark and sinister, the series sets him up as a lighter, funnier character.

Oswalt was born in Portsmouth, Virginia, to Carla and Larry J. Oswalt, a United States Marine Corps officer. On account of his father's career, he lived in Ohio and later in Tustin, California, before settling in Sterling, Virginia.

He attended Broad Run High School in Ashburn, Virginia and graduated in 1987. He majored in English and graduated from The College of William & Mary.

A standup comedian, actor and writer, Oswalt has appeared in several shows, such as 'The King of Queens,' 'Kim Possible,' 'Parks and Recreation,' 'Community,' 'Two and a Half Men,' 'Drunk History,' 'Reno 911!,' 'Mystery Science Theater 3000,' 'Archer,' 'Veep,' 'Brooklyn Nine-Nine' and 'The Goldbergs.' He was also a part of Marvel's 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'
