ORBITAL REDUX’s Season Finale Reunites PS4 SPIDER-MAN Star and His Stunt Double

The first season of the live space adventure series Orbital Redux is coming to a close, and it’s going out with a bang in the form of the world’s first live “Zero-G” sci-fi stunt. “Moon Station” will see star Yuri Lowenthal (the voice of Spidey in PS4’s Spider-Man) reunite with his stunt performer on the video game, Seth Austin. Lowenthal’s  character, Max Levodolinksy, and Max’s trainee Tommie Al-Qasimi (Yasmine Al-Bustami) must save their ship from destruction, and a live spacewalk is going to happen.

Insert dramatic music here.

Spacewalking is a tricky maneuver, but luckily Lowenthal knew who to call. He said, “Given the insane challenge of simultaneously pulling off a literal high-wire stunt while performing for a majority of the show in an Iron Man-style space helmet setup, and doing it all live, there really was just one option for success. I called Seth and asked if we could repeat the approach we’d perfected for Spider-Man, where I did the voice work while he simultaneously did all the thrilling acrobatic physical stuff. He was in as soon as I said ‘live spacewalk.'”
