The ninth season of the hit animated series will premiere on Adult Swim on May 24 before hitting streamers
The new season of “Rick and Morty” will hit streaming earlier than expected.
Adult Swim\u2019s hit animated series is set to return for its ninth season on Monday, May 24 at 11 p.m. ET\/PT, with the network promising a run that is \u201cbigger, bolder, and more ambitious than ever.\u201d New episodes will be available to stream weekly on HBO Max and Hulu beginning June 15.
According to the show’s official logline for the season” \u201c’Rick and Morty’ is back, baby! Season Nine is all certified bangers. No AI slop! Just Grade A organic slop, made by real humans with real human traits like back hair and cysts. Please watch, or we’ll have neglected our families for nothing.\u201d
Scott Marder returns as showrunner for the show\u2019s ninth season, continuing in a role he filled for Season 5. Marder executive produces alongside Harmon.
\u201cI know it\u2019s my job to say that this show just keeps topping itself, but it also has the benefit of being true,\u201d Michael Ouweleen, president of Adult Swim, said. \u201cIt\u2019s kind of scary what this show unit is doing season over season\u2014just pouring an absurd amount of talent and brilliance into these episodes. From the first frame, you\u2019re going to see great high-concept insanity with some of the best character writing ever done. Again, it\u2019s my job to say that, but it\u2019s also true.\u201d
Ian Cardoni, Harry Belden, Sarah Chalke, Chris Parnell and Spencer Grammer all return as the principal cast for the ninth season, Cardoni and Belden playing Rick Sanchez and Morty Smith respectively. The pair took over these roles from series co-creator Justin Roiland during \u201cRick and Morty\u201d Season 7 after\u00a0Adult Swim \u201cended its association\u201d with Roiland<\/a>\u00a0when he was charged with felony domestic violence.
“Rick and Morty”\u00a0was the #1 comedy across all of cable during Seasons 3, 4, 5 and 6 and has won two Emmys for \u201cOutstanding Animated Program.\u201d Season 9 set to roll out in more than 170 countries and 42 languages. \u00a0In the U.S., new episodes will be available for purchase from digital retailers the day after they premiere on Adult Swim.
