Episode Details

At only 25, Aleks Le has become one of the biggest voice actors in the world, breathing new life into dozens of global icons across anime and pop culture such as Sung Jinwoo from Solo Leveling, Zenitsu from Demon Slayer, Thorfinn in Vinland Saga, Jiji in Dandadan and Batman/Bruce Wayne in DC Heroes United.

With Solo Leveling - Reawakening about to arrive in cinemas, Aleks and Brendan sit down to talk about the work that goes into becoming Sung Jinwoo, favourite moments from the series, fitness and powerlifting, Channing Tatum and even reimagining Sung Jinwoo as an Aussie.

Solo Leveling - Reawakening is in cinemas globally from December 4/5, so get your group of S-Rank friends together, grab some popcorn and enjoy the ride as we head towards season 2.
