Exclusive: Haylie Duff is the latest Napoleon Dynamite alumnus to join the cast of animated blockchain pilot Cyko Ko.
She will reunite with Jon Heder, Tina Majorino, Efren Ramirez and Jon Gries on the pilot, which is now called Cyko Ko: The Animated Series.
The show is based on Rob Feldman’s Ringo Award-nominated comic book, published by Rocketship Entertainment, of the same name. It follows the titular Cyko Ko, a “fourth-wall breakin’, pinball-addicted, cereal eatin’, motorcycle-ridin’ hero” in a campy Saturday morning cartoon–like world.
The series will follow him, sidekick Peachy Keen and their pet Meemop, as he protects the colonies of SuperEarth from giant monsters and crazy characters “in this Saturday morning cartoon-inspired, all-ages title.” Duff will voice waitress Dolphina.
With Duff signed on, the main cast of the web series is now rounded out.
Duff played ‘mean girl’ Summer in 2004 high-school comedy Napoleon Dynamite, and also starred in Seventh heaven.

Napoleon Dynamite can add blockchain development to his list of skills. Jon Heder, who portrayed the titular character in a 2004 cult classic, is reuniting with three other cast members from the film for a pilot called Cyko Ko. The animated project and its Dynamite cast will be supported by an Nft drop on Replay‘s Rewarded.tv platform.
Cyko Ko is inspired by a graphic novel written by Rob Feldman, who will serve as the showrunner for the animated adaptation. Both Feldman and Heder have previous experience with NFTs. Feldman tested the Web3 waters with a drop called Cyko Headz, and Heder dropped the “Order of the Tigrons” on the Theta blockchain earlier this year.
Heder is now returning to Theta, where Replay has built its proprietary platforms. The young company — which emerged out of stealth earlier this year, doles out tokens to viewers through a “watch-to-earn” model. To support its financial ecosystem,...

Jodie Comer is killing it at the Emmys. For her turn as the skilled, maniacal assassin Villanelle/Oksana Astankova on BBC America’s “Killing Eve,” the actress just scared up her second consecutive (and career) nomination in Best Drama Actress, the category in which she took home the statuette for the series’ sophomore installment at last year’s awards. Now, Comer is gunning to assassinate her competition once more with her submission to Emmy voters, “Are You from Pinner?,” season 3’s fifth episode.
In this installment, Villanelle travels to Russia to visit her offbeat extended family, which is both surprised and suspicious upon her surprising arrival. While Villanelle – or more suiting, Oksana – bonds with her hermit-like brother Pyotr (Rob Feldman) and her Elton John-obsessed half-brother Bor’ka (Temirlan Blaev), tension between her and her mother Tatiana (Evgenia Dodina) is instantly detectable. That doesn’t, however, stop her from playing a “bloody” prank on her,...
