Ian’s Newest Project as ‘Peet The Sock Man’ in the Upcoming Animated Series, The WingFeather Saga

Ian took an exciting and fun new turn with his latest television project, voice acting in the role of Peet The Sock Man for

The Wingfeather Saga !

The animated series, coming to TV midseason in December of 2022, is based on the much loved book series of the same name.

The WingFeather Saga by Andrew Peterson is “a four book fantasy adventure series for young people, described as The Princess Bride meets The Lord of the Rings.”

The story is coming to life, thanks to 8,000 + Angel investors who helped to raise five million dollars. Angel Studios is partnering with the WingFeather Saga team to distribute the multi-season series which will premiere this winter.

For information on Ian’s character Peet, you can read his bio here: Peet The Sock Man .

He sounds like a very interesting character indeed and Ian’s fans are excited to see and hear him in this unique and different role.

Below are video clips with the creative team behind the series, including author/executive producer Andrew Peterson, and executive producer and show runner, J.Chris Wall, discussing their casting of Ian for the role.

LOST fans will find them particularly interesting and enjoyable, as it is revealed that Ian’s character of Desmond was an inspiration to Mr. Pearson as he was writing Peet! We think hearing Ian as Peet (there’s a peek of him at work in the 2nd clip)) will bring a pleasant surprise to LOST fans as well!

“Anything I shouldn’t miss?”

That left fans everywhere, wondering if he was there for a holiday or work?

Actually he was there for both!

Information released so far on the film, is it’s title – ‘1 Million Followers’ and per Ian, he plays “a Russian villian.”

CBS News Video – The Wind And The Reckoning

Recently CBS News highlighted upcoming film The Wind And The Reckoning by John Fusco

Directed by David L Cunningham and starring Jason Scott Lee , Henry Ian Cusick , Johnathon Schaech and Lindsay Watson, the film was safely filmed last year in Hawaii during the Covid 19 pandemic.

“The Wind and The Reckoning” is a true story set in 1893 Hawai’i during the tumultuous year of the overthrow of Queen Lili’uokalani by American businessmen. A Native Hawaiian father and son (Ko’olau and Kaleimanu) contract leprosy but refuse to be separated from their wife and mother (Pi’ilani) and be banished to Molokai “the island of the living grave”. For three and a half years this brave ohana is pursued by mercenaries and bounty hunters with lethal intentions. Ko’olau and family outlast them all and are able to live their last years together in peace and ultimately give voice to a voiceless people.”
