Hormone Monster Maury births his non-binary kid Montel in 'Big Mouth' Season 6. Let's introduce you to the voice actor behind the sassy Montel.
Netflix's hit sequence Big Mouth has returned to ship any other heaping serving to of awkwardness coated in sticky bodily fluids. Created through Jennifer Flackett, Andrew Goldberg, and Nick Kroll, the adult cartoon follows a group of heart schoolers who "find their lives upended by the wonders and horrors of puberty."
Thankfully, they do not have to go thru the pivotal era on my own, as each and every child is assigned a Hormone Monster, who helps them navigate menstrual cycles, embarrassing frame odors, budding urges, crushes, and more.

Among the sea of recent characters, Season 6 introduces us to Montel — aka the organic kid of Hormone Monsters Maury (Nick Kroll) and Connie (Maya Rudolph). See, at the end of Season 1 of Big Mouth's spinoff series Human Resources, Connie impregnates Maury. The storyline carries over to Big Mouth Season 6, which sees the bizarre start of Montel in Episode 4, titled "Rice Purity Test."
Male Hormone Monster Maury gives birth to Montel by way of his, smartly, his anus. Because Hormone Monsters age impulsively, Montel starts talking just moments after exiting the "womb." So, who voices the bushy little newcomer?

Who voices Maury and Connie's kid, Montel?
After Montel's start, human middle schooler Matthew (Andrew Rannells) asks Maury if the child is "a boy or a girl," which earns him a fiery reaction.
"Don't impose your fascist cis-human gender norms on this perfect little sex monster," Maury spits. "They will be called Montel."
Given that Montel is non-binary, it is only suitable that they are voiced by a non-binary actor.

Montel is voiced through 35-year-old queer actor, writer, comic, and alt-cabaret performer Cole Escola, who has hilariously described themself as "trailer trash born and raised in rural Oregon."
You may know the New York-based performer from comedy sequence like Difficult People, At Home With Amy Sedaris, and Search Party. Additionally, Cole has lent their voice to sequence like Tuca & Bertie, Baby Shark's Big Show!, and What We Do in the Shadows (where they voiced Gargoyle #2).

Cole is also identified for his or her offbeat and completely deranged solo cartoon display "Help! I'm Stuck!," which they released as a special in April 2020.
If you need to hear Cole Escola talk about the downfalls of inflexible, deep-seated gender norms as an audacious and totally horny creature, Season 6 of Big Mouth is lately streaming on Netflix.
