Jeff Hays Will Voice Princess Donut In ‘Dungeon Crawler Carl’ Show

Attention crawlers! The voice of popular cat character Princess Donut in Peacock’s live-action adaptation of Matt Dinniman’s Dungeon Crawler Carl has been found.

Jeff Hays, a voice narrator and producer behind the LitRPG audiobook series version of Dinniman’s dystopian comedy novel has joined the Peacock and Seth MacFarlane’s Fuzzy Door television adaptation to bring the regal cat, who can shoot lasers from her eyes and speak in the subterranean levels of the earth, to life.

The news broke live before a packed San Diego Comic-Con crowd during Penguin Random House’s “Spotlight on Matt Dinniman” panel, with Hays surprising fans during a conversation between series Writer and Executive Producer Chris Yost and author and Co-Executive Producer Matt Dinniman.

In Dungeon Crawler Carl, written for television by film, TV and comic book writer Chris Yost, an alien invasion has wiped out most of humanity and any survivors are forced to fight for their lives on a sadistic intergalactic game show. Sounds bad, right? Now try doing it with bare feet and a stuck-up, self-centered, tiara-wearing talking cat as your partner. Welcome to Dungeon Crawler World: Earth, where the apocalypse will be televised … and Coast Guard vet Carl finds himself stuck with his ex-girlfriend’s award-winning show cat, Princess Donut the Queen Anne Chonk, as they try to survive the end of the world, fighting monsters, aliens, an insane A.I. and even other survivors … all for the sake of good TV. Survival is optional. Entertainment is not.

The series is based on the New York Times bestselling hit “Dungeon Crawler Carl” by author Matt Dinniman, which became an international blockbuster, selling over 14 million copies across all formats and consistently dominates bestseller charts across the globe.

Jeff Hays narrates the series on Audible, and that version has clocked over 140 million listening hours. With over 6 million copies in print, Ace’s editions of the series have landed on the New York Times bestseller list for a total of 115+ weeks. Publishers: Ace Books and Audible.

Hays is repped by Matthew N. Sugarman at Weintraub Tobin.
