Vanessa Hudgens Dishes On POWERLESS, DCTV's First Comedy Series

In Powerless, Vanessa Hudgens' Emily Locke is an insurance claims adjuster who starts a one-woman crusade against the superhero community and their apparent disregard for public property and safety.

DC All Access recently caught up with Alan Tudyk, Vanessa Hudgens, and Danny Pudi to discuss their new NBC show, Powerless.  Speaking to the series lead, Hudgens told DCAA, "Powerless is DC Comic' first comedy.  It's very exciting. Normally, superheroes are really glamorized and looked up to, our show isn't really about them.  It's about people who live in a world filled with them.  We work at an insurance company so we're the people who pick up after the supers."  For more from Tudyk and Pudi, check out the video below.



The basic plot of Powerless actually reminds me of a scene from The Incredibles where Mr. Incredible saves a man from committing suicide only to be sued by that same individual for an injured neck. The legal ramifications of that court case is what prompted many of the superheroes to go into retirement. That outcome is unlikely for Powerless, seeing that A-list heroes like Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman (they'll be mentioned, but never appear) inhabit that fictional world. Still, it's definitely a similar concept.
