Adult Swim Announces More Seasons Of RICK AND MORTY

Adult Swim has greenlit two additional seasons of Rick and Morty, ensuring the global hit comedy will reach a 12th season, it was announced today at New York Comic Con. 

Previously greenlit until Season 10, Adult Swim’s #1 series that follows a sociopathic genius scientist who drags his inherently timid grandson on insanely dangerous adventures across the universe will now run through 2029. 

Rick and Morty was the #1 comedy across all of cable during seasons three, four, five and six, and has garnered two Emmys for “Outstanding Animated Program.”

The greenlight news was revealed during today’s Rick and Morty panel by series executive producers Dan Harmon and Scott Marder who were joined by series regulars Harry Belden, Ian Cardoni, Sarah Chalke, Spencer Grammer, and Chris Parnell. The panel also debuted a sneak animatic from a Season 8 episode, set to premiere in 2025.

“From Season One, Rick and Morty set a new standard in adult animation and has shown no signs of stopping,” said Michael Ouweleen, president of Adult Swim. “Dan, Scott and the rest of the immensely talented team behind Rick and Morty are constantly outdoing themselves and I’ll be joining the millions of fans around the world in looking forward to more adventures in the years to come.” 

“Nobody wants a universe without Rick and Morty,” said Harmon. “Fortunately, the list of places to go remains infinite.”

 “I couldn’t be prouder to have taken this baton pass of a lifetime during Rick and Morty’s fourth season and get us to Season 10,” said Marder. “Getting to go beyond that now is such a gift I can’t wait to give our fans. Rick and Morty – a hundred years – forever!”

 A global phenomenon, the most recent season of Rick and Morty debuted in over 134 countries in 38 languages.
