In her second stint with audio shows after Adulting, Yashaswini Dayama feels her voice-acting experience in Audible’s Marvel series Wastelanders: Doom has given her new insight and helped her grow as an actor. The series is set 30 years after a battle where supervillains triumphed, leaving many superheroes dead. Dayama voices the character of Valeria Richards, daughter of Reed Richards (Mr Fantastic) and goddaughter of Doctor Doom in the 10-episode show.
“Her superpower is immortality, but unfortunately, that’s not a power you easily discover. She lost her family and has lived in guilt for 30 years. Despite this, whenever she learns about any super weapon that once belonged to a hero or villain, she collects it to prevent it from falling into the wrong hands,” explains Dayama. Valeria dedicates herself to the cause, which leads to an inevitable confrontation with her godfather.
