Kiersey Clemons and Skyler Gisondo voice the characters of Derica and Dale in the new Amazon Original adult animated comedy series, Fairfax. All eight episodes will premiere October 29, exclusively on Prime Video.
Fairfax is an Amazon Original adult animated comedy series that follows four middle school best friends on their never-ending quest for clout on Fairfax Avenue in Los Angeles — the pulsing heart of hypebeast culture. Starring Skyler Gisondo, Kiersey Clemons, Peter S. Kim, and Jaboukie Young-White — and featuring the likes of Billy Porter, Zoey Deutch, Camila Mendes, Rob Delaney, Yvette Nicole Brown, Ben Schwartz, JB Smoove, John Leguizamo, and Colton Dunn, among others, in guest roles — this series is about the timeless struggle to be cooler than you are, to fit in while standing out, and what it feels like to wait in line for a pair of sneakers you’re never going to cop.
Clemons will be seen next starring as Iris West in The Flash. Her notable film credits include Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising, Zack Snyder’s Justice League, Dope, Flatliners, Hearts Beat Loud, Antebellum, Lady and the Tramp, Rent: Live, The Only Living Boy in New York, Scoob!, and Sweetheart. On television, the actress can be seen in Austin & Ally, Extant, Eye Candy, and Ghost Tape.
Gisondo is best known for his roles in Vacation, Booksmart, and Santa Clarita Diet. On television, he can be seen in The Bill Engvall Show, The Righteous Gemstones, Psych, and Wet Hot American Summer: Ten Years Later. The actor’s other film work includes Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb, The Amazing Spider-Man, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Hard Sell, The Starling, The Social Dilemma, Feast of the Seven Fishes, The Cat and the Moon, Halloween, Class Rank, Four Christmases, and Time Freak. He also lent his voice in Air Buddies, Snow Buddies, Space Buddies, Santa Buddies, Spooky Buddies, as well as Treasure Buddies.
I spoke with the duo about finding their characters’ voices, watching the animation come to life, the lesson they want audiences to get from Fairfax, what they are most excited for fans to see, and so much more!
