The effervescent and multi talented Aisha Tyler recently took some time to chat with me (on behalf of Bleeding Cool) about The Boys Presents: Diabolical. The eight fun-size episodes of the animated anthology series set in the universe of the Emmy-nominated hit The Boys, features the episode ‘Nubian vs. Nubian’ not only written but starring the former little kid who was obsessed with comic books, superheroes and The Empire Strikes Back. Fans first got to know Tyler on Talk Soup, as Charlie Weaver on Friends, Terry Lewis on Criminal Minds, Whose Line Is It Anyways?, and as Mickey on Fear The Walking Dead. Hosting Prime Rewind: Inside The Boys, the after show for season two, allowed Tyler to build a great relationship with the producers of The Boys which eventually led to EP Eric Kripke (Supernatural, The Boys) asking her to pen one of the Diabolical episodes. She instantaneously said yes, “There probably was an expletive in there,” and the road was wide open. The result was Episode 6 of the hilarious first season, ‘Nubian vs Nubian’ starring Tyler, as The Nubian Princess, and Don Cheadle as Nubian.
