Awkwafina Takes Danny DeVito on a Wild Tour of Discord in a Short Film Promo
Discord went ahead and made a short film promo titled Discord - The Movie and it features Awkwafina taking Danny DeVito on a tour of the group chat service that he knows nothing about. It’s explained that the promo is “about what Discord means to us, to you, and to people everywhere. Whether you're here to hang, chat, talk, study, or love eggs, all you have to do is imagine a place on Discord.”
The film turned out to be super entertaining and when sharing how the movie came about, it’s explained that they used input from the Discord community, who voted for DeVito to be the best representative of the platform:
You voted on Danny DeVito as the best representative for Discord, and now he’s recently made his Discord debut. You helped dictate the new look and feel of our platform, from fonts and colors to details as specific as ‘how many eggs is too many eggs?’ And your own words helped inspire the Imagine a Place project.
The promo follows DeVito on his journey through the imaginative landscape and meets several different users in various forms along the way, and he begins to understand what the service actually is. Enjoy!
