- Brennan Lee Mulligan and Matthew Mercer have established a robust partnership within the realm of geek culture.
- Their shows, “D20″ and ”Critical Role,” have achieved remarkable success by filling iconic venues like Madison Square Garden and Wembley Arena.
- Furthermore, these two creators not only collaborate professionally but also enjoy a personal bond; they teamed up for CR’s latest campaign arc called “Downfall.”
You can sense the excitement in Brennan Lee Mulligan’s voice as he recounts his initial encounter with Matthew Mercer of “Critical Role.” His enthusiasm reflects that of someone who has discovered their perfect gaming companion.
At that time, Mulligan was involved with “Um, Actually,” an online series available on Dropout. He had been tasked to inject inaccuracies into a Dungeons & Dragons combat scenario depicted through comic panels for one episode—a November 2018 segment featuring guest participant Mercer. This was around when “Critical Role”—the Twitch show co-founded by Mercer—was beginning its meteoric rise within pop culture.
As an experienced ‘rules lawyer,’ it fell upon him to identify all errors embedded within Mulligan’s presentation; not only did he spot every mistake listed by Mulligan, but he also uncovered additional ones that went unnoticed.
When their work concluded for the day, they found themselves waiting at an elevator in West Hollywood engaged in conversations about their passion for Dungeons & Dragons games.
“It felt like love at first sight,” remarked Mercer to BI. ”I instantly recognized this individual: ‘I’m going to be friends with him for many years ahead.'”
Forging A Solid Alliance
Fast forward to today—Brennan Lee Mulligan and Matthew Mercer stand as titans of the entertainment world catering to fantasy enthusiasts. Their productions attract fervent audiences who flock to arenas such as Madison Square Garden (where ”Dimension 20″ will hold its sold-out event in January 2025) and major international venues including Wembley Arena in London or The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles.
Apart from fronting successful shows together, both men play vital roles behind-the-scenes too: Mercer takes on the position of Chief Creative Officer at Critical Role dynamically leading his team involving animation projects backed by Amazon as well as board game initiatives while simultaneously filling various creative roles at Dropout where production has recently begun striving towards Emmy nominations under Mulllian’s guidance.
The Collaboration on ‘Downfall’
Mulligan revealed his admiration toward *Critical Role* over previous years which deepened further during his contribution towards EXU Calamity; following this journey marked another milestone when he returned again as part of *Downfall*, which unfolded across three episodes aired last July.
From Mercer’s perspective collaborating with guest game masters such as Mullingn necessitates establishing immense trust owing largely because Exandria holds extremely significant importance personally—”I initially felt anxious about meeting those storytelling expectations yet came alive knowing I could place confidence onto somebody capable enough presenting them impeccably,” explained Mercy regarding Muillan’s involvement…
